Eddie Howe believes that Miguel Almiron could offer Newcastle United "a real weapon" in the Magpies' Premier League run-in. We're now down to just seven top-flight matches for United but there is still plenty to play for with merit money and the highest finish since 2018 still up for grabs.
With Ryan Fraser picking up an unfortunate hamstring injury Almiron could now get his big chance to impress. The South American battled hard against Wolves and got himself into a couple of goalscoring positions.
Reflecting on his performance and what he can bring to the table in the remaining fixtures, a delighted Howe said: "I thought Miggy did really well. Miggy has been away on international duty, then he was ill, so we haven't seen a great deal of him. But never doubt him physically."
