Matthias Jaissle is the leading candidate to succeed Eddie Howe as head coach of Newcastle United.

Jaissle, previously at RB Salzburg and currently managing Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia, has garnered attention due to his successful record and attacking style of play. Supporters may view Jaissle's arrival positively given his experience and success in both the Austrian Bundesliga and Asian Champions League.
