🚨 💣 Newcastle United announce that Eddie Howe has left the football club after 5 years as manager.
HOWE:
🗣️ “After nearly five years of giving my life, heart and soul into the club with unrelenting energy, I feel that it is in
the best interests of both myself and the club to step away, recharge and take a break.
🗣️ “Although it’s been incredibly difficult to make this decision, I know in my heart that it’s the right one.
🗣️ “I have always put the best interests of Newcastle before my own in every single decision I have made whilst I’ve been here and this one is no different.
🗣️ “It has been the privilege of my lifetime to have been the manager of Newcastle United.
🗣️ “It is difficult to put into words what this club, the city and its supporters mean, and will always mean to me.”

How did Thomas Tuchel know that it was time to sub Dan Burn in an aerial battle match?
This is how, he dominated in 1v1’s against arguably the best striker in the world.
He is underrated because he plays for Newcastle.
🇮🇹 🗣️ Sandro Tonali’s goodbye
Three years ago I came to Newcastle not really knowing what to expect. Today it's time to say goodbye and it's hard to find the right words.
I want to start by thanking the club. To the people who work every day and nobody sees at the training ground, everyone who welcomed me and made me feel at home from the very first day. Thank you to the staff and my teammates for believing in me and helping me grow.
A special mention to the gaffer, Eddie, who's been a real guiding figure and who always had my back throughout this journey.
But above all, I want to speak directly to the fans. When things were hard for me, you were there. Not for one day did I feel alone. I felt it every time I was at St James' Park.
That's something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
Together, we achieved something this city had been waiting decades for.
At Wembley that day, it was special, a historic moment we got to share together. To the fans who never stopped believing, who never stopped cheering for this club, who were there in the hardest times, that trophy was for you.
The game brought me to Newcastle. Today I leave with my wife and our son, born during my time here. This city gave me more than football. It gave me a home, moments I'll hold onto forever, and people I will always be grateful
for.
Thank you for everything.
Sandro

🚨 BREAKING: Newcastle complete the signing of highly rated winger Bazoumana Toure from Hoffenheim.
💰Undisclosed fee believed to be in the region of £40 million for the 20-year old Ivory Coast international.
👀 Really intriguing signing this; Toure is rapid, one of the most highly rated dribblers in the Bundesliga last season - and described to me as a player who has a, ‘really high ceiling in the game’
🗣️ Toure: “It was my dream since I was young to play in the Premier League for a big team like Newcastle. Newcastle is like a family, which will help me show my best on the pitch. I will give my best every single day for this shirt.”
