Miley returns to Newcastle as loan cut short

On-loan Newport County midfielder Jamie Miley has been recalled early by parent club Newcastle United.

Miley, 20, had been due to spend the 2024-25 campaign with Newport after signing on loan last August.

But the midfielder has now returned to Tyneside amid reports that he is set for a permanent move elsewhere.

Miley made only eight appearances during an injury-hit spell at Newport.

He managed three League Two starts for the Exiles, the most recent of which came in the defeat at Tranmere Rovers in early November.

His final Newport appearance came in the home loss to AFC Wimbledon earlier this month.

"The club would like to thank Jamie for his efforts during his time at County and wish him well for the future," Newport said in a statement.
