Howe Addresses Man United Legends Backing Him To Succeed Amorim

Eddie Howe has distanced himself from the vacant managerial position at Manchester United after being mentioned by Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt as a potential replacement for Ruben Amorim, Newcastle manager.

The two well-known former United midfielders discussed a list of possible replacements on their podcast, The Good, the Bad, and the Football.

The 48-year-old was linked to the position at Old Trafford prior to Amorim’s appointment 14 months ago, and he was mentioned briefly in remarks over the weekend after Chelsea fired Enzo Maresca.

Howe Distanced Himself From Man United Job

But Howe was quick to reaffirm his “100%” dedication to the Magpies when his name was put in the running for the England manager position after Gareth Southgate left.

According to The Metro, when asked if that remained the case, he said: “Yes, absolutely. Nothing has changed from my perspective.

“I’m 100 per cent here, working as hard as I can, head down, ignoring all the stuff that you guys write good or bad because it’s irrelevant.

“It’s about today’s work and trying to prepare the team as well as we can for Leeds, so that will never change from my perspective, my commitment to my work and my job.

“As long as I’m happy and able to express myself in the best way that I can to help the team, nothing will change.”

Howe, who signed a “long-term” contract extension in the summer of 2022, is currently in his fifth season at St. James’ Park after leading Newcastle to their first major domestic trophy in 70 years last year.
