Newcastle boss Howe confirms Miley, Anderson for matchday squad; record could be broken

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe says Lewis Miley and Elliot Anderson will be in tonight's matchday squad at San Siro stadium.

Newcastle open their Champions League campaign against AC Milan later on Tuesday.

Howe said: "Elliot Anderson and Lewis will be involved. Paul Dummett as well. For Lewis the experience regardless of whether he gets on the pitch or not is really valuable if that's how you approach it.

"Take it all in and he can have fond memories."

Should he get on, 17 year-old midfielder Miley will become Newcastle's youngest player to taste European football. He would take the record off Adam Campbell who came on as sub against Atromitos back in 2012.
