Believe it or not, but four years have flown by since Miguel Almiron put pen to paper on a Newcastle United contract after his £21million move from Atlanta United.
Within hours of Almiron taking his seat on the flight which flew him over Atlantic and into the UK with his agent Daniel Campos, Newcastle had beaten Manchester City 2-1 under Rafa Benitez on a chilly night in 2019. Even now - with United flying at the top and Almiron a huge part of it all - that type of result wouldn't be small beer.
The great thing is that Almiron signed for Newcastle because he was ambitious and in a season in which he has lived up to that potential under Eddie Howe with nine goals and one assist in 20 Premier League games, he is fulfilling his dreams on Tyneside.
