# Newcastle United: Allan Saint-Maximin drops exciting message

**Allan Saint-Maximin has dropped a very exciting three-word message from his official Twitter account after Newcastle United teased his return.**

The St. James’ Park faithful [tweeted (via @NUFC)](https://twitter.com/NUFC/status/1350132549574651904) a picture of a Magpies player’s legs controlling a ball on the training pitch with a caption of a crown emoji and the words ‘back soon’, to which Saint-Maximin [quoted (via @asaintmaximin)](https://twitter.com/asaintmaximin/status/1350163642474520578), confirming that the picture was of him, with the caption ‘I’m back baby’.

The Magpies later released [more images](https://twitter.com/NUFC/status/1350134829610901506), showing that the Frenchman is indeed ‘back’.

### Saint-Maximin return a big boost to Newcastle

The return of Saint-Maximin to Steve Bruce’s team will definitely be a big boost for the Tyneside club.

The Toon have clearly missed him, having not won in their last [eight](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/allan-saint-maximin/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/272642/plus/0?saison=2020&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) games in all competitions now without him in the side.

They lost a genuine chance of a domestic trophy in the defeat at Brentford and have picked up just two points from their last six matches in the Premier League in games where the 23-year-old may well have added a creative spark.

In the top flight this season, he was winning no fewer than 7.6 of his duels a game while also averaging 3.6 successful dribbles per appearance, before his illness ([Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/player/allan-saint-maximin/347010)).

The France international will surely slot straight back into the side upon his return, with the Gunners NUFC’s next opponents in the top flight on Monday night.
