Newcastle United has appointed Matthias Jaissle as their new head coach following the resignation of Eddie Howe. The German coach has signed a four-year contract with the club, which included a £9.5 million compensation payment to Al Ahli, the Saudi club he previously managed.

Jaissle's first match in charge will be a pre-season friendly against Valencia at the Mestalla next Saturday. He has been with Newcastle since the weekend and expressed enthusiasm about the club's ambitions and future direction.

Before his tenure in Saudi Arabia, Jaissle achieved success with Red Bull Salzburg, winning two Austrian Bundesliga titles and leading the team to the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
