Where is Steve Howey now?
Former Newcastle United central defender Steve Howey retired from the game in 2005 after short spells with Major League Soccer side New England Revolution and Hartlepool.
Starting his professional career with the Magpies in 1989, he went onto make 350 first-team appearances over a 16-year period for six teams including Manchester City where he won the old First Division title in 2002 to go with the one which he had previously won with Newcastle United in 1993
On the international front he played for the England senior side on four occasions between 1994 and 1996 and was a member of the 1996 UEFA European Championships squad.
Upon retiring from playing he went into the coaching side of the game and had a short spell as manager of Crook Town before stints as a youth coach at Middlesbrough and Bishops Auckland.
From 2007 to 2011 he worked at East Durham College Football Development Centre as head coach but now works as a Premier League referee’s assessor covering games in the North East and North West of England. He also coaches around the world with the Premier Skills initiative run by the Premier League which provides highly qualified A-License coaches to train young coaches in football’s developing countries.
In 2020 Howey played a small part in the second series of ‘Harry Heroes‘ which saw a group of former England players travel to Germany to play some of their ex-internationals in a grudge match. The Three Lions were victorious with a 1-0 victory against a team containing German legends such as Thomas Hassler and Steffen Freund.
