Arsenal scout Eddie Howe who has ‘no regrets’ about leaving Bournemouth
More news that AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe is gearing up to replace Arsene Wenger at Arsenal.
The Sun declares: “Ed Hunted.”
Adding:
EDDIE HOWE is under serious consideration to become the next Arsenal manager. SunSport can reveal that the highly-regarded Bournemouth chief’s name is being discussed in the corridors of power at the Emirates.
Revealed? Like the Star revealed on July 28: “ARSENAL have earmarked Eddie Howe as a potential successor to Arsene Wenger.” As for the Sun’s story, which contains no quotes, we’re told:
Eddie Howe is being lined up as a replacement for Arsene Wenger as Arsenal boss
News reaches Bournemouth.
The Sun reports:
HOWE ABOUT NO Eddie Howe to Arsenal: Bournemouth chief Jeff Mostyn issues hands-off warning over man tipped to replace Arsene Wenger
He tells TalkSport:
“Eddie is a Bournemouth boy through and through. He has been with the football club since he was ten. There is unfinished business. He wants to ensure that if and when he does move on he will leave a legacy.”
Or as the Sun puts it in its other Eddie to Arsenal story:
Howe inspired Bournemouth and led them to promotion to League One in 2010, only to leave for Championship side Burnley in January 2011.
As Howe told BBC Radio Solent back then:
“I turned down two other clubs this week because I wanted to stay but this was just one I couldn’t turn down. There were no reasons why I should from a personal and professional point of view. It just ticked all the boxes. I found it very difficult from the week’s events to come to that decision but I thought if I didn’t it would be something I would regret for the rest of my life.”
If Arsenal want him, he’ll surely go.
