Newcastle United coach Eddie Howe has announced his resignation, citing a “deep-seated betrayal” over a secret deal involving star striker Alexander Isak.
According to sources close to the club, Howe discovered that Isak had been negotiating a potential transfer to a rival Premier League club without informing the coaching staff or ownership.
The news sent shockwaves through the team, with players and staff left reeling from the sudden departure of their respected coach.
“We are shocked and saddened by Eddie’s decision to leave,” said a Newcastle United spokesperson. “We will do everything in our power to ensure the team continues to perform at the highest level.”
Isak, who has been instrumental in Newcastle’s recent successes, has yet to comment on the situation.
