Newcastle United are in talks with Al Shabab over the transfer of Paraguay Miguel Almiron as reported by Saudi Arabia correspondent Ben Jacobs of talkSPORT.
While the deal has yet to be finalized the deal could be a major setback for Newcastle fans as Almiron have been favorites since joining in 2019 from Atlanta United.
Almiron unforgettable moment came in October when he scored his first goal in Newcastle Champions League in two decades during a stunning 4-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain. Germain at St. James Park.
However there has recently been a challenge for Eddie Howe side finishing fourth in their Champions League group and falling to the middle of the Premier League table.
Concerns about compliance with financial fair play regulations also stemmed from Newcastle massive cash outflows following the takeover of the Saudi Public Investment Fund in October 2021.
To address financial considerations Almiron potential sale to Al Shabab a non-PIF-owned club could play a role.
