Arsenal want to sign Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United this summer, and the Gunners are confident they know how much he is worth.
The North London club are looking to add to their midfield options during the window to find a new partner for Declan Rice.
💰 Bruno Guimaraes is turning 29 in November and has TWO years left on his contract… How much should Arsenal pay to sign him?
Sandro Tonali was another name Arsenal had on their list, but a deal for the Italian seems too expensive, and he could be heading to Spurs instead.
Now, the Gunners are focusing on a move for the Brazilian, and despite not making official contact with Newcastle, there is a sense that he could end up at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal think £65 million will be enough to sign Bruno Guimaraes
Arsenal are confident that £65 million will be enough to sign Bruno Guimaraes this summer, according to Chronicle Live.
Inside the Emirates, there is a sense that anything over £50 million is a good offer owing to his circumstances at Newcastle.
The Brazilian international has two years left on his current deal and is turning 29 in November; therefore, the Tyneside club may opt to cash in.
Having said that, he is the captain and heartbeat of this Eddie Howe team and losing him would be a total disaster.
🤔 PICK ONE: Would you rather Arsenal signed Bradley Barcola or Morgan Rogers this summer?
So despite Arsenal’s valuation of the player, it is likely to take a massive offer to tempt them into selling Bruno this summer.
Bruno Guimaraes does not want to leave Newcastle on bad terms
Bruno does not want to leave Newcastle on bad terms, as reported by Diario De Cuiaba, and he will surely need to push for the move to happen.
The Gunners are prepared to raise their initial £55 million bid, which was dismissed, but it remains to be seen whether Newcastle will sell.
Alex Scott remains another target for Arsenal, but again, Bournemouth are standing firm over keeping him on the South Coast.
Andrea Berta certainly seems to have his work cut out in order to sign a midfielder for Arteta this summer.
