Miguel Almiron’s transfer from Newcastle to Charlotte FC is complete
Newcastle United failed to reach an agreement for Miguel Almiron with Charlotte FC playing in the MLS.
The Paraguayan is thought to be available for a transfer amid the Magpies’ search for a new left-back.
Before moving to Chelsea, Pedro Neto was linked with a move to St James’ Park. Noni Madueke, also of Chelsea, is the latest star to emerge as a transfer option for Eddie Howe.
Miguel Almiron at Charlotte FC is falling
However, regardless of who the Geordies look to bring in, much will depend on Almiron’s future.
The 30-year-old has just two years left on his contract and could make a move this summer. Charlotte FC were seen as the most likely club to sign the South American, but, according to Ben Jacobs, they failed to meet Newcastle’s £15.5 million (€20 million) price – meaning the deal may have collapsed.
Alimiron now faces an uncertain future ahead of the new 2024-25 season, but with him likely to be in Howe’s squad to face Southampton on Saturday, the defender will be wondering how much of a part he should play in his club’s future.
In his five years at Newcastle, Almiron, who has played 58 games for his country, has scored 30 goals and registered 12 assists in 209 games in all competitions.
