This season, Newcastle United finds itself in an odd situation. The disappointment of finishing just outside the Champions League places and almost missing out on the Carabao Cup and European football feels like a distant memory.

Eddie Howe was a brilliant choice for Newcastle United during the PIF era. While it may be absurd to assume he is under any kind of pressure, the nature of contemporary sport has seen discussion about potential managerial changes throughout a difficult spell for Howe’s club in recent weeks.
Jose Mourinho’s probable arrival is receiving notice, with ties to the club claimed by Italian publication Gazzetta dello Sport and endorsement from people such as Richard Keys.
According to The Athletic, despite his apparent wish to remain at AS Roma, the 60-year-old Jose Mourinho has not been given fresh terms, and his current contract expires in six months. There are “fears” that Newcastle or perhaps previous club Chelsea may pursue him, but the Italian club’s owners have yet to take action.
Although Jose Mourinho has previously shown appreciation for the club because to his association with Sir Bobby Robson, a prospective transfer to Newcastle would be very contentious due to his recent Premier League failures.
