Arsenal, Newcastle United and Bruno Guimaraes
Wednesday
Arsenal have agreed the framework of a £75m deal to sign Newcastle captain Bruno Guimaraes. The Brazil midfielder is awaiting permission to leave Newcastle’s Spanish training camp and complete the remaining formalities of his move to the Emirates.
Arsenal are preparing Guimaraes’ medical after prolonged negotiations over the final terms. The midfielder made clear that Arsenal was his preferred destination, and completion would make him another major Newcastle departure during the club’s summer rebuild.
