Newcastle United have a fresh Miley in their ranks. According to BBC News, Mason Miley — younger brother of first-team midfielder Lewis Miley — has signed his first professional contract with the club.
The 17-year-old, comfortable in central midfield or at full-back, is hoping to emulate his sibling's rise through the Newcastle academy and eventually break into the senior side. "Hopefully I can follow in his footsteps in the future," Mason said, reflecting on the family connection that already runs deep at St James' Park.
Lewis Miley has become a regular fixture in Eddie Howe's squad after progressing through Newcastle's youth ranks, and Mason will now be plotting a similar path. Should he make the breakthrough, it would mark a rare instance of two brothers representing the same Premier League club simultaneously — something Mason himself has described as a dream scenario for his family were it to materialise in the years ahead.
