## Miguel Almiron’s Situation at Newcastle United
Miguel Almiron finds himself in an intriguing position at Newcastle United.
After receiving criticism for rejecting a move to Saudi Arabia, former teammate Allan Saint-Maximin came to his defense.
Last week, with the club needing to raise funds to comply with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules, selling Almiron would have provided a financial boost.
However, Newcastle reportedly struggles to move the forward, while Almiron himself prefers to stay at St James’ Park.
It remains uncertain if the 30-year-old will leave, especially now that Paraguay is out of the Copa America, which could expedite his return to Tyneside and discussions about his future.
### Almiron’s Future at Newcastle
Having already turned down a move to Saudi Arabia, The Chronicle reports that Almiron is still discussing his career’s next step with his agent. He believes he can continue playing in the Premier League.
If he does leave, it will only be for a suitable destination, and he won’t rush to accept just any offer.
### Newcastle’s Valuation of Almiron
Ben Jacobs recently revealed that Newcastle is seeking around £20m for Almiron’s services this summer.
Considering the club paid a reported £21m to acquire him from Atlanta United in 2019, this would be a significant return on investment for a player in his thirties.
Whether Newcastle can find a suitable club willing to pay that amount remains to be seen, but it would be a fantastic piece of business if they can.
