TOON SET TO GO BIG FOR MIG

- BY SIMON BIRD

Live on BT Sport 2, 7pm LIVERPOOL must beat Napoli to have any chance of going through – victory by more than one goal will ensure qualificat­ion. Should Paris Saint-Germain beat Red Star, the Reds will need a 1-0 triumph or to win by two goals or more to finish second behind the French side, but other wins will not be enough. If the game in Belgrade is a draw, Liverpool will advance with any win as it would leave them, PSG and Napoli all on nine points - with the English club finishing first on the three-way head-to-head. Red Star will take third place if they win and Liverpool lose. P W D L F APts NEWCASTLE are favourites to land £20million MLS star Miguel Almiron... according to his dad.

The Paraguayan midfielder (below) will leave Atlanta in January. West Ham and Spurs are also interested in the 24-year-old but he is more likely to get regular first-team action at Toon.

Father Ruben Almiron said: “He will definitely go to England. What’s still to be decided is what club but Newcastle have the advantage.”

Atlanta chief Darren Eales warned Newcastle will have to pay big money, saying: “We are not going to let him go for chump change.” MANCHESTER CITY teenager Phil Foden has signed a new five and-a-half-year deal. Foden (below), 18, has made eight Premier League appearance­s this season. He is now tied to City until 2024.
