Jamie Carragher has claimed Eddie Howe could be next in line for the England manager’s role.
The Newcastle manager has done a great job at St. James’ Park since taking over in November 2021, qualifying for the Champions League in his first full season at the club.
Despite last season’s failures, with the club finishing seventh on 60 points, Howe remains regarded as one of the best managers in the league and the right man for the Magpies at the moment.
However, following his recent success, it has opened up the potential for the England manager to leave the club with his name increasingly respected across European football.

But according to Liverpool legend Carragher, his next destination may not be a club but a country, with the former defender tipping Howe for the England job.
“The other is Eddie Howe.” He said to the Stick to football podcast after naming Lee Carsley as his other potential choice.
“I feel like there’s something behind the scenes at Newcastle where eventually something will happen, whenever it is. It’s either him (Carsley) or Eddie Howe. For me, I’d have Eddie Howe.”
Carsley is currently England’s interim manager after being appointed earlier last month to replace Gareth Southgate for the time being.
