Newcastle rule out sale of Bruno Guimarães
🚨 Arsenal made verbal offer to sign Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle. #AFC proposal via agents below £60m - rejected + #NUFC say sale of 28yo #Brazil int’l midfielder will not be entertained W/ @gunnerblog.bsky.social @chrisdhwaugh.bsky.social @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/739...
Yeah and Isak wasn’t for sale either. Welcome to Arsenal Bruno
Not a NUFC or AFC fan, but <£60m is disrespectful to one of the best CM/ in the league despite age and length of contract remaining. Appreciate Spuds love getting bent over and Brighton are the kings of coming up from behind, but that bang average Dutch defender cost £52m with one year remaining…
He’s not hanging around at Newcastle let’s be honest. Project is on its knees and there will be a manager change within a couple months of the season starting.
60million is that a joke? 🤣
£60m isnt even nearly enough
Yeah good, move away from this fool
When we made the verbal offer, were we covering our mouth?
I would prefer Arsenal to not sign him. Yes, he’s a beast of a player but he’s also a massive cnut.
Absent ownership, a shite season coupled with zero evidence of an actual project (training ground, stadium), players rejecting us on a weekly basis. A knackered and bored squad playing for a Manager that has lost his way. All of this has made us weak in everyone’s eyes, resulting in this.
I'd prefer a younger player in midfield and ideally someone who hasn't spent the last few years continuously rattling me but my word Bruno Guimarães really is really really good.
Hi Lewis, fancy coming our pod to discuss the Bruno links and maybe some other transfer news. Out Host Holly likes the Bruno links but I, Stef, need convincing (can't get past the rattling 🤣)
Some of these links have me wondering if we aren’t going to see Rice,Saka, or Saliba Start until after the first Intl break. I think it would be amazing team management. The boys must knackered after last season and the WC.
If this is as the “Jorginho / Norgaar” role in the squad I’m all for it

Does this character come with red card immunity amulet?
How would ever finish 90mins for us?
I dont want him. I dont see how he fits in unless we get rid of some key players.
This only makes sense to me if we're selling Zubimendi. The one thing we don't need is another 6/8 in his late 20s. Also he'd be a booking machine in an Arsenal shirt. And the Zubi fee would basically have to be the same as we're spending on Guimaraes. I'm calling it: this is Grade A nonsense.
On the one hand this makes no sense. On the other, can anyone say with confidence that Mikel Arteta's perfect midfield 3 isn't three defensive midfielders? Because I can't.
