Charlotte FC have opened talks with Newcastle to sign winger Miguel Almiron.

The Major League Soccer team is led by former Aston Villa, Leicester and Brentford manager Dean Smith and there is a confidence they can strike a deal with Newcastle.

The Magpies are believed to be open to a sale but it is accepted that it will be more difficult to convince Almiron, 30, to return to the United States, where he won the MLS Cup with Atlanta United before moving to St James' Park in a 拢21m move in 2018.

The secondary MLS transfer window closes on 14 August.
