Miguel Almiron injury history and updates
By Kian Long
How often does Newcastle United attacker Miguel Almiron get injured? This post runs through the Miguel Almiron injury history and updates on his current injury.
Thankfully for Newcastle fans and Eddie Howe, the answer is not often. Furthermore, when Almiron is injured, he’s very rarely injured for long. Touch wood, since he’s arrived at St James Park, he’s proven to be a tough cookie.

Miguel Almiron injury history and updates
Miguel Almiron thigh problems, March 2023
This is the second mid-term injury which has ruled out Miguel Almiron since he signed for Newcastle but his first mid-term spell out for four years thankfully.
Towards the end of Newcastle’s epic 2022/23 season, Almiron was sidelined due to problems with his thigh. Ultimately he was out for a month and returned in time for the end of the season.
Miguel Almiron knee injury, February 2021
Miguel Almiron suffered a knee injury for the first time in his Newcastle spell. Thankfully, though, it only ruled him out for two matches, as he returned to full fitness a fortnight after.
Miguel Almiron hamstring injury, December 2019
In the middle of his second season, Almiron picked up an unfortunate hamstring injury. It was only a short-term injury, since he soon returned to action after missing one game. He would’ve liked a better return though, since he started in the 4-1 loss against Manchester United
Miguel Almiron ankle injury, August 2019
Towards the start of the 2019/20 season, there was an injury scare for Miguel Almiron. Thankfully for the Paraguay international, though, his ankle injury only ruled him out for one game and that was an EFL Cup fixture against Leicester City.
Miguel Almiron hamstring injury, April 2019
In Newcastle’s 3-1 win against Southampton in the 2018/19 season (the one where Perez scored a hat-trick, I’m sure you’ll remember), Miguel Almiron had to be subbed off due to injury. It was the first injury since he signed for Newcastle that season and it was a mid-term injury.
It was an injury which ruled him out for the rest of the season.
