Just in: Newcastle United recently reached an agreement to acquire Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes, two Champions League “legends.”

After six years at Newcastle, where he scored 30 goals in 223 appearances across all competitions,

the 30-year-old is back in Atlanta. Almiron’s best moment in black and white may have occurred last

season when he opened the scoring in the team’s 4-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in October 2023,

giving them their first Champions League goal in more than 20 years. In addition,

he scored eleven goals the previous season, which helped The Magpies place fourth and earn a

spot in Europe’s top league. Almiron departs Newcastle having left a lasting effect in his six years there,

even if he only started one Premier League game this season.

Almiron reportedly paid a club-record £21 million to join Newcastle in 2019 after leaving Atlanta.

Many Newcastle players and well-known individuals flocked to social media after the Paraguayan’s

exit was announced on Thursday, January 30, to wish him well in Atlanta.

On October 4, 2023, Newcastle United FC plays Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League at

St. James Park. The first goal of the game is scored by Newcastle United’s Miguel Almiron.

After leaving Newcastle, Almiron, who was well-liked both on and off the field, got a lot of messages from Newcastle supporters.

Former co-owner Mehrdad Ghodoussi tweeted on X: “Miguel Almiron – best of luck my friend.”
