Former Sheffield United and Queens Park Rangers goalkeeper Paddy Kenny has backed Newcastle United midfielder Miguel Almiron to hit double figures this season. Almiron scored twice in Newcastle's 4-1 win at Fulham, before notching his fourth goal of the campaign in the 5-1 victory over Brentford on Saturday.
The 24-year-old has scored four goals in nine league games, equalling his personal record for goals in a single Premier League season. Kenny believes Almiron is one of many players who've improved under Eddie Howe and has tipped him to smash his record this term.
"10 goals in a season can be worth a couple of places at the end of the year," Kenny told Football Insider. "Almiron scored a load of goals in pre-season, I remember talking about it.
