'Can change the game' - Jose Enrique compares Miguel Almiron to Liverpool star

Miguel Almiron Jose Enrique Liverpool Luis Diaz Newcastle Newcastle United Cristiano Ronaldo Jurgen Klopp Trent AlexanderArnold Fulham

Jose Enrique has likened Newcastle United star Miguel Almiron to Liverpool winger Luis Diaz.

Since joining Newcastle in 2019, Almiron has made 131 appearances for the club and scored 17 goals in all competitions. Three of those have come in eight games at the start of the season including a stunning strike in the Magpies' 4-1 win at Fulham on Saturday.

Former Liverpool left-back Enrique, who spent time at Newcastle before he made the move to Merseyside in 2011, believes Almiron is one of the most in-form players in the league. He also says he has qualities similar to that of Diaz, who joined the Reds from Porto in January of this year.
