Arsenal have had a £55m offer for Bruno Guimaraes rejected by Newcastle United, according to ESPN Brasil sources. The Premier League champions had already held talks with the midfielder’s representatives and believed a deal might be possible.

Newcastle insist Guimaraes is not for sale and want to tie him to a new contract with two years left on his current deal. Arsenal are seeking midfield depth, while also monitoring Sandro Tonali’s situation.
