Newcastle United is undergoing significant structural changes with the departure of former co-owners Amanda Staveley and Mehrdad Ghodoussi, and the recent appointments of a new sporting director, performance director, and chief operating officer. CEO Darren Eales asserts that while initial tensions may exist, these upheavals are necessary for the club's long-term progress. The management team has expanded from a single executive in 2021 to a more robust structure, which head coach Eddie Howe acknowledges as essential for the club's ambitions. The board has shrunk from five members to four, with Yasir Al-Rumayyan, chairman of the Saudi Public Investment Fund, being the key decision-maker. Meanwhile, the club is also seeking a new Under-21 coach following Ben Dawson's move to Leicester City, indicating further changes within the youth setup. Overall, these developments reflect Newcastle's intent to strengthen its operational framework.
