Newcastle announce manager Eddie Howe's backroom team

Newcastle United have announced manager Eddie Howe's backroom team.

Howe has already been joined at the Newcastle United Training Centre by assistant head coach Jason Tindall, who was previously his assistant at AFC Bournemouth before taking on the managerial position.

First team coaches Stephen Purches and Simon Weatherstone, who left the Vitality Stadium in June 2021 following several years of service, have also signed contracts on Tyneside.

Assistant head coach Graeme Jones, first team development coach Ben Dawson and goalkeeper coach Simon Smith all form part of Eddie's new coaching set-up.

The club has also added to its sports science department, with Dan Hodges arriving from AFC Bournemouth.

Meanwhile, Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence, who arrived as assistants to Steve Bruce in July 2019, have left their roles after supporting Graeme Jones during an interim period.
