Miguel Almiron has completed the formalities of his visa application and will join the rest of his Newcastle United team-mates when they return to training on Wednesday.

Almiron’s agent Daniel Campos posted a picture of Almiron at the Eiffel Tower after the player completed the paperwork on his visa application, which will allow him to join training with the rest of his new teammates. He is likely to be among the substitutes at Wolves as Rafa Benitez eases the forward into his surroundings easily.

Passing the visa process is the last formal obstacle to Almiron becoming potentially United’s record signing . Although the initial outlay was £16million, it could rise to £21million with substantial payments if the team stay in the Premier League and the player is involved with the first team enough.

Almiron has been assigned a personal trainer by United in the days since his signing so that he can be kept sharp ahead of joining his new teammates.

Campos’ excitement at the impending move has been documented on social media with fans being kept up-to-date about the player’s unveiling and movements since signing for Newcastle on transfer deadline day.

Almiron will be unveiled by United on Thursday at 3pm ahead of Monday’s big game against Wolves.
