Miguel Almiron has lifted the lid of the euphoric atmosphere inside Newcastle United's dressing room at present. The Paraguayan has played a huge role in the Magpies' ascent up the table this season, enjoying a purple patch in front of goal in the first half of the campaign.
Newcastle find themselves on the cusp of Europe little over 12 months since facing the possibility of a third relegation in just over a decade. As such, Almiron admits the joy is back on Tyneside this term.
“Last season, the pressure was not to go down and it was hard, so now we try to enjoy each training session to the fullest," he told La Nacion. “We take a lot of responsibility, because we know that qualifying for the Champions League is very big, not only for us but for the club, which it has deserved for a long time.”
