Newcastle United winger Miguel Almiron has picked up an injury in the Copa America.

The attacker was visibly distressed as he came off during Paraguay's 1-0 defeat to Uruguay in the summer tournament.

Per Chronicle Live, Newcastle and the Paraguayan FA are working together to assess his condition after he picked up a hamstring knock in the game.

As Paraguay prepares for a quarter final against Ecuador, it is unclear whether Almiron can take part in the rest of the tournament.

A serious hamstring injury may even keep him out for the start of the Premier League season.
