Eddie Howe spent 11 years at Dean Court across two permanent stints and a loan as a player, before twice managing the team between 2008 and 2011 and 2012 to 2020. He joined the Magpies in 2021 and returns to the Vitality Stadium for the third time as the north east side’s manager.
Andoni Iraola said “I think it’s probably very fitting that Eddie comes with Newcastle. “It’s a big part of the history of the club, I think 125 years, there are a lot of years, there is a lot of history. “Probably here in England you don’t see it as special, but for me, I come from outside, 125 years is a lot. “I feel lucky to be part [of it] now in this special moment.”
