Almiron gets his first Newcastle assist after 24 games and Twitter can’t believe it
MIGUEL ALMIRON has FINALLY bagged his first assist for Newcastle – and fans on social media can’t believe it.
The Magpies signed the winger back in January for what was then a record £20m fee from Atlanta United.

The 25-year-old played 10 games last season without scoring or getting an assist.
He has played 13 games this campaign, and finally recorded an assist as he set up Jetro Willems to fire the equaliser against Manchester City.
The next milestone to reach will be a goal – but footie fans were stunned that he had assisted a goal.
He has created 23 chances for his misfiring team-mates since moving to the Premier League.
Adam Cameron wrote on Twitter: “Almiron assist, finally!”
Nathan Thomas posted: “Almiron finally had a goal contribution!”
Another posted that “the end is nigh” after he contributed to the goal.
