This season, Almirón made just 9 Premier League appearances without registering any goals or assists.
It is worth noting that in the winter of 2019, Almirón originally joined Newcastle from Atlanta United for €24 million.
Reminder: Earlier, Newcastle head coach Eddie Howe stated that the "Magpies" would not be active in the winter transfer market.
