Some Newcastle United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to latest report regarding Eddie Howe.

What’s the story?

The Mirror have reported this afternoon that Howe may not end up at Newcastle after all.

Newcastle’s owners, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) are not budging from their stance.

The ball is now in Howe’s court.

If the former Bournemouth manager wants to take charge of Newcastle, then he must accept what PIF are offering.

What are Newcastle United fans saying?

As you can see from the tweets below, Newcastle fans are worried at this latest development.

Well, some of them anyway.

BBC Sport reported on Thursday that Howe was set to sign a contract with Newcastle.

The Athletic claimed late last night that the Magpies were going to announce the appointment today.

However, it seems that there has been a twist now.

One Newcastle fan has pointed out how Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy quickly moved to appoint Antonio Conte.

Nuno was sacked as the Spurs head coach earlier this week, and soon after Conte was drafted in.
