It was initially thought that celebrations may need to be paused until the end of the season as international breaks and warm weather training camps take over the Premier League club’s calendar for the next few days.
Eddie Howe is taking his the members of his squad who were not called up to their respective nations to a Middle East training camp for the days following the instantly iconic Wembley win.
However, fans’ clamour for a major event to celebrate the League Cup victory may come to fruition. A post was shared to Newcastle United’s official social media accounts on Monday evening with the caption “Busy?”
The image showed Eddie Howe with the trophy at Wembley Stadium with the text ‘save the date. March 29 2025.’
