- Arsenal have stepped up their interest in Bruno Guimaraes
- The Newcastle United star can cost more than £100 million
- Along with Gunners, Manchester City are also keen to sign the Brazilian
Arsenal have felt a need to improve their midfield this season. They have been tested due to constant injuries to their star players. In addition, Jorginho and Thomas Partey are set to leave for free at the end of this season.
Gunners will surely want to make a big signing next year. They will want a proper replacement for leaving stars who are experienced and have proved themselves at the highest stage.
On the other hand, the situation is somewhat same for Manchester City. They are missing Rodri on a huge extent who will miss the entire season due to injury. City have already lost 4 matches in row recently.
In addition, Kevin De Bruyne is also nearing the end of his career at highest level. Now, Newcastle United star has came across both Arsenal and City as a common target.
Arsenal and Man City plotting a move for Bruno Guimaraes
As per Fichajes, both Arsenal and City are keen to sign the 27 year old. The report adds that he can cost atleast £100 million due to his quality and experience. He is tied to Magpies with contract running until 2028, so they will surely demand a hefty fee.
Guimaraes can be a quality addition for both clubs. It will surely be an step up in his career as well. He has already proven his worth in England. The Brazilian has played 121 matches for Newcastle. He has topped it by scoring 17 goals and assisting another 17 so far.
City have spent big amount in the past so this type of deal will not surprise their fans. Gunners have hesitated a little while spending such amount but their recently deals show that they can take risks if the target fits their bill. Last summer they paid £105 million of Declan Rice and it has paid off really well so far.
