Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has expressed a strong intention to keep defender J. Lewis at the club for the long term. Despite acknowledging that Lewis’s transfer situation is complex and that the player has not yet met certain criteria, Howe has made it clear that Lewis is in the club’s future plans.
Howe praised the Northern Ireland international for his work ethic, indicating that the club sees him as an integral part of their strategy moving forward. Lewis, who plays as a defender for Newcastle in the Premier League, is expected to continue developing under Howe’s guidance.
According to Eddie Howe: “Chances of Hall staying at the club on long-term? Absolutely. His transfer is complicated and he hasn’t quite hit the criteria. But he’s part of our long term plans, he’s working well”.
