Named to match-day squad Almiron (illness) will be available off the bench against Wolverhampton on Friday.
Impact Almiron returns following just a one-match absence due to illness. While Almiron had started two straight prior to missing out, he has been an unused substitute in four of the club's last nine contests. As such, the attacking midfielder shouldn't be considered a lock for the starting XI heading into the back half of the season.

Should be back Friday Almiron (illness) is expected to be available for Friday's match against Wolverhampton.
Impact Almiron was a late scratch last weekend because of an illness, but he's had close to a week to get back his health. Prior to illness, he received back-to-back starts, something he hadn't done since December. That being the case, he remains an early-sub candidate and has yet to hit the back of the net this season.

Out with illness Almiron missed Sunday's defeat against Tottenham with an illness, Newcastle manager Eddie Howe confirmed after the game.
Impact Almiron will hope to recover and be healthy by Friday's clash against Wolves, but he has started just two Premier League games so far in 2022 for Newcastle.

Quiet in start Almiron had one shot on goal, created one chance and sent in three crosses (one accurate) during Sunday's 1-0 loss against Chelsea.
Impact Almiron made his first start since Dec. 19 but couldn't produce anything other that a powerful volley from outside the box that was beautifully saved by the keeper during the first half. The attacker has been struggling mightily all season long and we shouldn't be surprised if he's headed back to the bench for Thursday's visit to Everton.

Trip to Southampton postponed Almiron and Newcastle won't play Sunday after their match was postponed due to continuing COVID-19 issues within the squad.
Impact Newcastle have a lot of injuries and it appears COVID-19 is adding to the amount of players available. It's unknown who tested positive, but they'll have a couple weeks to recover assuming their next league match is Jan. 15 against Watford.

Returning late from international duty Almiron has yet to link up with Newcastle after returning late from international duty, according to manager Eddie Howe.
Impact Almiron was already seeing fewer minutes after the sacking of Steve Bruce and now he's yet to train under Eddie Howe, so there's a decent chance he won't start Saturday against Brentford. In his place, Joe Willock is an option to re-enter the starting XI depending on the formation used.

Impact Almiron was solid on both sides of the ball against Watford on Saturday, but he is still yet to be involved in a goal this season. Next weekend he faces Wolves, which have conceded just five times in five Premier League matches.

Takes two shots in opener Almiron had two shots not on target and a chance created in Sunday's 4-2 loss against West Ham.
Impact Almiron went a full 90 Sunday, so it looks like he's completely over the groin issue suffered over the summer. He had a somewhat disappointing performance given that his team scored two goals, but that's often how things go for him. He doesn't have much of a floor no matter his position and his upside is fairly limited with four goals and one assist from 34 appearances last season.

Back in XI for friendly Almiron (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Saturday's friendly against Norwich City.
Impact Almiron reportedly only returned to training this week, so starting a friendly is a bit surprising. The hope is that he didn't return too soon, but given his relative health throughout his career, there's no reason to doubt him. He looks to be ready to start for the Aug. 15 opener against West Ham.
AUGUST 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Returning to training Almiron (hamstring) will start training with the group this week, according to manager Steve Bruce.
Impact Almiron injured his hamstring a little more than a month ago, so this timeline seems about right, though he's not guaranteed to be ready in 10 days for the season opener. As with any hamstring injury, it's important to get back to full health before returning to the pitch.

Suffers mild injury Almiron suffered a mild strain to his hamstring and will miss Paraguay's next Copa America match.
Impact This is a great update for Almiron, as he escapes a major injury to his hamstring. While he won't take part in Paraguay's next match, he may only need a few days on the sidelines, meaning his return for the Newcastle preseason shouldn't hit any bumps.

Injures hamstring in Copa America Almiron injured his hamstring in Monday's Copa America match and could be out the rest of the tournament.
Impact Almiron had been a regular for Paraguay in the tournament, but this injury was likely a result from overuse. He started 28 matches this past season for Newcastle and then moved south for Copa America. The hope is that it's not a severe hamstring injury that requires surgery, as that would push his return to around the beginning of the new campaign.

Closes season quietly Almiron failed to make the score-sheet in his final 13 starts of the campaign.
Impact Almiron bagged a brace early February and then didn't make the score-sheet again. While he's been a regular in the side, he's managed just eight goals and three assists the past two seasons from 70 appearances (63 starts). Even in an attacking role, his numbers have mostly struggled.
