Shearer: Howe exit puts Newcastle at a crossroads
Alan Shearer says Eddie Howe's exit leaves Newcastle facing a difficult period, praising Howe for lifting the club, including the 2025 Carabao Cup win, but highlighting ongoing player sales and failed targets that undermined momentum; with Bruno Guimaraes' future uncertain and signing targets failing, the club's changing transfer model and ownership-driven strategy raise questions about future competitiveness, making Matthias Jaissle a possible choice for the next manager.
