Howe, out of work since leaving Bournemouth last year, is understood to have agreed a two-and-a-half-year deal at Newcastle following talks with the club’s new owners this week. The Brighton game is followed by a two-week international break, and Howe’s first game in charge is set to be the November 20 home game against Brentford.
