Arsenal reportedly made a verbal bid for Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimarães. The proposed transfer package, relayed through intermediaries, was valued at less than 70 million euros. However, the club from Northern England has decisively rejected the approach.
Newcastle United has publicly indicated that it has no intention of considering any offers for the 28-year-old Brazilian international. Guimarães is currently focused on preparations for the World Cup Round of 32 match against Japan. Since arriving at Newcastle from Lyon in January 2022, Guimarães has established himself as a pivotal figure for Eddie Howe’s squad.
His contribution to the club has been significant, marked by over 150 appearances and 30 goals in the Premier League. Furthermore, he remains a key player for the Brazilian national team, which is managed by Carlo Ancelotti. The reported interest from Arsenal comes amidst Newcastle’s recent activity in the transfer market, including the sale of a winger.
Despite the substantial financial offer from Arsenal, Newcastle appears committed to retaining the midfielder, suggesting that his value to the club outweighs the potential transfer fee. The club’s firm stance signals that Guimarães is expected to remain a central component of their plans for the immediate future.
