Miguel Almiron is reportedly closing in on sealing his departure from St. James’ Park, with the Newcastle United attacker a target for several clubs.
According to a report by the Daily Telegraph, Miguel Almiron might not be at Newcastle United when the winter transfer window closes. The 64-cap Paraguayan international is edging closer to departing from St. James’ Park this month amid interest from clubs in the USA, Brazil, and Europe. Recent updates have also linked the experienced attacker with Saudi Pro League outfits.
Miguel Almiron and his Newcastle United issues
Miguel Almiron has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining Newcastle United from Atlanta United in January 2019. The South American attacker has come leaps and bounds in the last half a dozen years, enjoying some exceptional campaigns while being dreadful in other seasons.
The 30-year-old has blown hot and cold in the last 18 months, and his stock has fallen in the 2024/25 campaign. Almiron has not even managed 500 minutes of game time across 12 outings in all competitions thus far this term, and he has yet to find the back of the net.
So, it is hardly surprising that Newcastle United are ready to part ways with the 64-cap Paraguay international in the winter transfer window. Intermediaries have shown interest in the former Atlanta United forward, while clubs in the USA, Brazil, and Europe are keen on securing his services this month.
What next?
Recent reports have linked Miguel Almiron with Crystal Palace. Meanwhile, the Daily Telegraph has suggested that Newcastle United will demand around £12 million to part ways with the South American attacker in the winter transfer window. Meanwhile, clubs from the United States, Brazil, and Europe have contacted the Tyneside outfit regarding a move for the winger.
While the Magpies have not finalised a transfer fee with any prospective suitor, Almiron is edging closer to sealing his departure from St. James’ Park this month. Meanwhile, Newcastle United will unlikely recoup around £12 million from the player’s sale, and they must peter the expectations.
So, it will be interesting to see if Newcastle United can receive an attractive sum from Almiron’s sale in the winter transfer window. With the 64-cap Paraguayan international not having a shortage of suitors, he will get his desired exit this month.
