The lack of clarity in the right-wing position has also raised questions about the roles of the team’s natural right wingers. Jacob Murphy, who shone during pre-season, has struggled with injuries and is yet to make a significant impact this season. Miguel Almirón, a regular starter in previous campaigns, has found himself limited to just one Premier League start, sparking speculation about his future at the club.
Daniel Campos, Almirón’s agent, acknowledged his client’s frustration but insisted the Paraguayan remains committed to Newcastle. Speaking to TYC Sports, Campos said:
“Although Miguel is not happy with the minutes he has in England, he wants to stay and fight for it at Newcastle. The coach [Eddie Howe] has always supported him and even asked him not to leave. It must be a tactical or temporary issue.”
Almirón was linked with a potential move away during the summer, with further rumors suggesting he could depart in January. However, for now, the player appears determined to fight for his place, despite the uncertainty surrounding his role.
