Miguel Almiron 'excited' for Newcastle United's summer plans

Newcastle United star Miguel Almiron can't wait for an Atlanta homecoming this summer when he and his side embark on their pre-season tour of the US.

The 29-year-old Paraguay international will return to his former side Atlanta United as the Magpies make a visit to Georgia, as part of the Premier League Summer Series this July. With 43 goal contributions in 70 games for the MLS outfit, it was Almiron’s form in Atlanta that inspired the Magpies to splash £25 million on the winger back in January of 2019.

Since then, the winger has of course gone on to become a key part of Eddie Howe’s high-flying United – scoring 11 goals so far this season, as Newcastle make a bid for Champions League football.
