Teenager Lewis Miley is an upcoming prospect who is destined to do big things in football. Already making a name for himself at Newcastle United club he primarily plays as a central midfielder. He is versatile enough to play both defensive and attacking midfielder roles. The local lad was a lifelong Newcastle supporter and is now living his dream playing for his favourite club.

Moreover, he also became the youngest player to represent the Magpies in European competitions when he came on the pitch as a substitute against Borussia Dortmund.
His future at his hometown club looks grim, however, as news has emerged that the club is looking to sell Miley off to raise money for player buys in the summer. Miley is marketable and, as such, will make good money for Newcastle. All that hangs in the balance, however, as Eddie Howe has yet to make a final call on the matter.
