A lot of Newcastle United fans have responded to a tweet shared by NUFC 360 from a Paraguayan journalist linking Miguel Almiron with a move away from Tyneside.
The tweet claims that both Inter Milan and Arsenal are interested in Almiron – who has scored two Premier League goals for the Toon since he joined them in January 2019 from Atlanta United.
However, these Toon fans do not believe the tweet.

I highly doubt it

He isn’t good enough for arsenal or inter like. We’re his level, and he’s not exactly pulling up trees for us in the prem.

Paraguayan media also claimed Real Madrid wantes him in the summer?

Other Newcastle supporters have expressed how they would like to keep Almiron.
Hands off!

If Songstaffs value for Man U was 50m, I expect at least a 75m+ price tag on Miggy.

They can have him for 300 million

What do we think?
Almiron, who is valued at £18m by Transfermarkt, is the Toon’s top goalscorer in all competitions with six goals.
Since he finally got his first against Crystal Palace in December, the 26-year-old has scored six in 17 appearances.
Do you believe this story?
Yes
No
The Paraguayan international has earned an average rating of 6.64 in the league this season but is loved by his manager Steve Bruce – who has called him a manager’s dream.
It will be interesting to see what happens in the summer and if this supposed interest from both Inter and the Gunners turns into anything.
