Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe has firmly shut down recent speculation linking him with the Manchester United managerial job, insisting his focus remains fully on the long-term project at St James’ Park.
Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported that Howe has not considered any alternative proposals or approaches in recent weeks, as his commitment to Newcastle is “100 percent.” The clarification comes amid growing rumours suggesting Manchester United were monitoring the English coach as uncertainty continues to surround their managerial situation.
Speaking earlier today, Howe addressed the reports directly, making it clear that his priorities have not shifted. “Nothing has changed from my perspective, I’m 100% here, working as hard as I can,” the Newcastle boss stated, dismissing any suggestion of talks or interest elsewhere.
Howe has played a pivotal role in Newcastle’s resurgence since taking charge, transforming the club into a competitive Premier League force and guiding them back into European football. His work under the club’s ambitious ownership has earned widespread praise, naturally attracting attention from other top clubs.
