da realbet: Following a terrible start to the season, Newcastle pulled off two brilliant results going into the international break as they beat high flyers, Watford and Bournemouth to record their first wins of the league season.
da dobrowin: As a result of those two results, Newcastle now find themselves 14th in the table and finally out of the relegation zone.
Obviously, Newcastle aren’t out of the woods yet and must strengthen in January if they are to stay out of the relegation places.
Although Mike Ashley failed to strengthen in the summer, the usually frugal owner must provide Benitez with some new recruits in January. With that in mind, the Chronicle is reporting that Newcastle are interested in MLS star, Miguel Almiron.
The Breakdown
The Atlanta United man has been one of the best players in the MLS this year and will surely be departing America following his fantastic season. The attacker has scored 12 goals in the league this season, while also grabbing 13 assists. The season before he had another impressive year as he scored nine in 30 while also creating a further eight.
Capable of playing across the front three attacking positions, Almiron would be a welcome addition to a side that struggles to score goals and lacks a quick, dynamic winger who delivers in the final third.
Although it’s unsure how good the player is considering he’s been playing in the MLS, Newcastle need some more attacking talent.
Rondon had a great game at the weekend but overall, the on-loan striker isn’t a prolific striker and Newcastle need more reinforcements.
