Agent claims Newcastle rejected £14m bid – “He needs to remain and battle”

Miguel Almiron’s agent Daniel Campos has spoken out on the winger’s future and revealed that Eddie Howe requested for the Paraguayan to remain at Newcastle for the 2024/25 season.

Almiron, who solely has one begin to date within the Premier League this marketing campaign, had been linked with the likes of Charlotte FC and Everton in the course of the summer season, however no transfer got here to fruition for the membership’s once-record signing.

Chatting with TYC Sports activities, Campos mentioned “Though Miguel isn’t pleased with the minutes he has in England, he needs to remain and battle at Newcastle.”

“Eddie Howe at all times supported him. When Miguel made a request, he requested him to not go away. It should be a tactical or momentary problem. Charlotte FC supplied round $18m. We had a contract organized with them however the Membership rejected the proposal from the US.”

Charlotte FC reportedly put in an $18m (roughly £14m) bid for the previous Atlanta United Ace, however the membership supposedly rejected that provide; a choice some are baffled by given our PSR points and his lack of involvement of late.

If Campos and the reviews are to be believed, then this Almiron switch state of affairs is eerily just like the Callum Wilson and Kieran Trippier sagas from January of final 12 months, when the pair had been retained for squad depth, solely to overlook giant elements of the marketing campaign for one motive or one other and see their worth endure.

The correct winger place remains to be one which must be addressed by Sporting Director Paul Mitchell and the membership’s greater ups in January. Taking a look at Almiron’s lack of minutes, coupled with Anthony Gordon and Joelinton doing a job down that aspect, means there’s house to promote Miggy and usher in a brand new right-winger to take up that first-team spot.

Nevertheless, Almiron’s want to hold preventing for minutes on Tyneside should be recommended regardless of the interesting prospects of strikes to the Center East or again to the US.
