Miguel Almiron: Newcastle striker ready to begin training after work permit granted and could make debut against Wolves
Newcastle’s record signing Miguel Almiron has been awarded a work permit and can now begin training with his new team-mates.The 24-year-old had to leave the country while the paperwork was completed after completing his club-record transfer to St James’ Park on deadline day.2

Almiron won the MLS Cup with Atlanta United last month

However, it is understood Almiron is back in the north east and was expected to join his colleagues at the club’s Darsley Park training headquarters on Wednesday morning.The playmaker cost the Magpies in the region of 21million after a prolonged January pursuit which went close to the wire.His name was at the top of manager Rafael Benitez’s wish-list as he attempted to strengthen his squad ahead of a final push for Premier League survival. Full-back Antonio Barreca, who also arrived on Tyneside last week in a loan deal from Monaco, made his debut as a substitute in Saturday’s 1-0 defeat by Tottenham at Wembley.Almiron could get his chance when the Magpies head for high-flying Wolves on Monday evening.His capture represented a significant shift in a saga which has dogged the club in the last year or so, with owner Mike Ashley refusing to spend heavily in the transfer market while interested parties sought to put together workable takeover plans, and Benitez declining to sign a contract extension without assurances over the current regime’s ambition.2

Almiron signed for Newcastle in a 20million deal

The Spaniard is out of contract in the summer and, while he is keen to stay, there is little doubt he is frustrated at having to negotiate a second scrap for safety having expected to be given the chance to build upon last season’s top-10 finish.Whether or not Ashley’s decision to invest in Almiron represents a rapprochement remains to be seen, with sources on Tyneside having indicated there has been no development on the contract front in the last week.However, the fact the sportswear magnate sanctioned a club-record purchase for the first time in his near 12-year tenure perhaps provided a pointer as to the chances of the club being sold in the short term.
