Arsenal are reportedly close to agreeing a deal to sign Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, according to the latest transfer reports. The Brazilian international has been a key player for Newcastle since joining in January 2022, and his performances have attracted interest from several top clubs.
Reports suggest that Arsenal have made Guimaraes a priority target for the summer transfer window. The club is believed to be willing to meet Newcastle's valuation, which is reported to be around £100 million. However, no official bid has been confirmed yet.
Guimaraes, 28, has a contract with Newcastle until 2028, and the club is reluctant to sell one of their star players. However, the player is said to be open to a move to London, which could facilitate the transfer.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is looking to strengthen his midfield, and Guimaraes is seen as an ideal addition to provide experience and quality. The deal is expected to be completed before the transfer window closes, but negotiations are still ongoing.
