Man United are closely monitoring Eddie Howe’s ongoing situation at Newcastle after his boardroom bust-up, sources have told Football Insider.
The 46-year-old has had a public falling-out with Newcastle’s sporting director Paul Mitchell, which has thrown his long-term future at the club in doubt.
United currently have managerial concerns of their own, despite opting to stick with Erik ten Hag during the summer.
Ten Hag is still under the microscope at Old Trafford after a mixed start to the campaign, and his position will be scrutinised further if the team remains outside of the Premier League top four.
Howe is seen as someone who ticks a lot of boxes for Man United, with the hierarchy admiring the way he’s transformed Newcastle, his Premier League track record, and his media profile.
Man United will continue to assess Eddie Howe with Erik ten Hag under new scrutiny
The Premier League giants are set to continue assessing Howe throughout this season as the tension behind the scenes at Newcastle continues to bubble over.
Despite the backstage chaos at St. James’ Park, Newcastle have had a strong start to the season and currently sit in sixth place.
On the other hand, the 20-time champions are currently 11th and trail the north east giants by three points.
Ten Hag’s men have only won two of their opening five Premier League fixtures and will commence their Europa League journey on Wednesday (25 September) against FC Twente.
