Newcastle United Midfielder Bruno Guimaraes Set to Join Pre-Season Camp Amidst Arsenal Transfer Speculation
Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes is set to join his teammates at their pre-season training camp, amidst ongoing speculation linking him with a move to Arsenal. The Brazilian international, who has been a target for Arsenal this summer, is reportedly en route to Spain to meet up with the Newcastle squad at their training base in La Manga. Guimaraes had agreed to leave Brazil on Sunday to fly to Spain and rejoin his teammates, following his break after the World Cup. The midfielder has reportedly fulfilled all the requirements set by Newcastle during his time off.
Rumors have been circulating that Arsenal are close to securing a deal for Guimaraes, with a reported fee of £77 million being mentioned for the 28-year-old. There were even suggestions that Arsenal had scheduled a medical for Guimaraes this week, indicating a potential move to the Emirates Stadium. Guimaraes' contract with Newcastle runs until 2028, and he is expected to resume pre-season training with the club in the coming days.
The uncertainty surrounding Guimaraes' future has increased following the departure of Eddie Howe as Newcastle manager. Howe reportedly believed that Guimaraes would leave the club to join Arsenal. Arsenal are looking to bolster their midfield this summer as they prepare for the upcoming Premier League season.
