Eddie Howe is set to leave Newcastle United just 24 days before the club’s first Premier League season opener against Liverpool.

According to The Athletic, Newcastle are in advanced talks to replace Howe with Matthias Jaissle, who is the head coach of Saudi Pro League club Al-Ahli.

Speaking last week, Howe admitted that he had endured a ‘painful’ summer with both Sandro Tonali and Anthony Gordon leaving Newcastle.

Arsenal are also trying to sign Newcastle captain Bruno Guimaraes, who has informed the club that he wants to join Mikel Arteta’s side.

‘We don’t want to lose our best players,’ Howe said.
