With Newcastle United still struggling, as exemplified by their 3-2 loss to Chelsea on Monday night, the pressure keeps growing on Eddie Howe.
The Magpies are having a poor season compared to last season, and the latest defeat leaves them just one point ahead of the Blues, who have a game in hand.
This has led to calls for Newcastle to sack Howe and replace him with a proven winner, such as José Mourinho, but Calciomercato.it reveal that the Premier League club might have some competition if they choose to go down that route.
The Turkish side are currently two points behind league leaders and arch rivals Galatasaray with nine games to go, with those fixtures potentially decisive for their manager’s future.
Were he to fail in that quest, them Mourinho is one of the candidates they are looking at, potentially getting in the way of Newcastle if the Magpies decide to change managers in the coming months.
