Almiron clears up confusion around Newcastle future after sparking transfer talk

Miguel Almiron has sought to clear up any confusion regarding his future at Newcastle, with the Paraguayan claiming that comments taken by many to be a hint towards an imminent exit were misinterpreted.

The 27-year-old forward was recently quoted by ABC Cardinal as saying that he wants to "play for a side that fights more" after seeing the Magpies become caught up in a Premier League relegation battle this season.

That was considered to be a nod towards a transfer away from St James' Park being sought, but Almiron insists that is not the case and that he remains happy and settled on Tyneside.
