Bruno Guimaraes

Arsenal have had contact with Bruno Guimarães’ camp. A similar exploratory approach to one Manchester United made before the window opened. No contact with Newcastle as of Thursday evening, nor do #NUFC wish to sell. #AFC also one of the clubs considering Alex Scott, along with Manchester United and Spurs. Latter could advance if they fail to land Mateus Fernandes/Sandro Tonali. Ayyoub Bouaddi also on Arsenal’s list as they assess several midfield options. And #AFC made contact with Sandro Tonali in January. Andrea Berta content to explore different options before deciding on any bids.🔴

Talks for Bruno Guimaraes remain at the final stages with movement expected in the coming hours/days.🇧🇷 https://t.co/7WT217NUyn

Arsenal finalising a deal for Bruno Guimarães, as revealed with @alex_crook on @talkSPORT last week. Advanced talks have been ongoing for some time. Newcastle sources have insisted formal talks only started a day ago, but verbal discussions have been ongoing for weeks. Broad agreement in place, pending final details. All parties expect the deal to go through. Guimarães has already agreed terms.⏳

Club sources currently billing Bruno Guimarães' move to Arsenal as a fixed fee of £75m. Arsenal committed to a higher guaranteed payment than the £70m they offered last week, and with preferable payment terms to Newcastle. Yet those close to the player still insist there are some additional performance-related add-ons potentially taking the deal a bit higher.🇧🇷

Kia Joorabchian is heavily involved in all the noise you hear about Bruno G. Newcastle are yet to receive any contact from Arsenal. If the player pushes and we make a serious offer, I will update. Until then just chill out.

Arsenal are due to bid again for Bruno G.

Morning Arsenal fans. When @David_Ornstein exclusively reported on the 26th of June a proposal was sent. It was an offer below 60m and it was rejected. You then were told no bid has even been made? This happened again and again you were told…’no direct contact / no official bid’ …In early July I exclusively reported Bruno respectfully told Eddie Howe directly he wants to leave if possible for sporting reasons. Fast forward to Thursday.. widespread reports of a 70m bid…my understanding is that was also rejected in the past days. In our pursuit for our top target Tonali, it became abundantly clear the agent fees, the wages and the transfer fee was just not reflective of the player’s quality and ceiling. During this pursuit we were made aware of Bruno G’s ’desire and availability’. Enter Kia Joorabchian. If there is one thing to know about this individual is that not only is he a super agent but he mingles in super wealthy circles and even enjoys purchasing very very very expensive horses with Premier League owners. Why is that relevant? Let me explain. My understanding is that Kia has always been talking to someone very highly ranked within Newcastle. One may even suggest ownership level talks with Kia as you now know the type of circles he moves in…. So this whole process / the verbal offers have been made in THESE discussions. The Newcastle press and respect to all of them have been reporting in good faith about ‘no official offer / no direct contact’ because no Arsenal employee has not contacted them yet and no official offer has been made. On the 14th of July, I reported 80-85m is where serious talks take place. Now you are hearing ‘the number has to start with an 8’ for serious talks to begin’….When / if Kia makes a breakthrough on the fee and it’s all agreed at a high level…then the actual official bid will go in and things will move rapid. Bruno is obligated to join up with Newcastle this Friday…Kia is still in talks…feels like a really important few days. Arsenal will stick to their valuation with Kia really pushing for a breakthrough. I hope this has cleared up the dual reporting and the process somewhat. Sorry for the delay.

Arsenal set to finalise a move for Bruno G today. Well placed sources say the total package reaches £80m. The Brazilian is expected to fly today to complete medical and formalities tomorrow. Have we made contact yet? Who knows. https://t.co/KEI4u3uafR

🚨 #Arsenal Bruno Guimarães remains Arsenal’s priority target. 📌 Informed Chelsea & Man City, pressing Arsenal. 📑 Wants future resolved next week. 📌 Told Newcastle he wants to leave, won’t refuse training. 📌 Pointing to Tonali’s £100M fee, expect similar valuation.

I'm not aware of Arsenal progressing with Bouaddi talks or signaling they'll agree to Lille's demand re. another year. Most recent contacts have been around Bruno Guimaraes and Alex Scott. No new bid for Bruno G. yet but could happen soon @caughtoffside https://t.co/u5FZH7gt66

As reported a few ago - Guimaraes and Scott priorities over Bouaddi, with more confidence over Guimaraes. No second bid yet, but player has now told Newcastle he wants to leave, as per @David_Ornstein https://t.co/org8ulDV5f

Have also been told that Arsenal are "cautiously optimistic" on agreeing Bruno Guimaraes deal at around £75-80m @caughtoffside https://t.co/YRQ3vGvsq9

Feel there is going to be more bad news for #nufc regarding Bruno Guimareas saga. Claims from his camp that he wants to leave. Still no contact from Arsenal club to club.

First bid has been rejected. Talks likely to continue. After all the noise and false reports of direct talks things are finally happening. Everything you have seen in the media the last few weeks was building to this point #nufc #arsenal https://t.co/XTOFzOG3Vf

I would expect this to be resolved this week. Newcastle have got a month to find a replacement. Player is desperate to make the move to Arsenal. Just need to agree a fee #nufc #arsenal https://t.co/mbcihhv96R

Bruno G - Welcome to Arsenal Football Club Bruno Guimarães has completed his medical and signed a 4 year contract. Bruno G #39 https://t.co/twUwUBGhSN

The expectation is for Arsenal to announce the signing of Bruno G today. The player has already begun training at Sobha. The club is still in the market to reinforce. Regardless of if we sign Romero, the player was / is VERY open to joining us.

So, we’ve been reaching out to our contacts at Newcastle United about this rumored £65 million release clause for Bruno Guimarães, and it’s been driving us crazy. You’d think they’d either confirm or deny it, right? But all I’m getting is silence. It’s a bit strange. You’d expect some clarity on a player of his calibre. Is there really a release clause? @Arsenal @NUFC

Exclusive 💣 Bruno Guimarães is really disappointed that his manager/friend Eddie Howe has left @NUFC. This will affect his future and he has called a meeting with the club owners for tomorrow. https://t.co/j9IDGGrcOR

They will reject bids. New bid etc. This is all PR from Newcastle now. Everything is agreed. Bruno Guimaraes is very relax.

Always a case of when & not if Bruno Guimaraes communicated desire to leave Newcastle Once leading agents were instructed to talk to clubs, there was a fear internally he wanted to go NUFC protected by 12-month option on contract (taking to 2029). Still no contact from Arsenal https://t.co/ua76GoDWhm
