Bruno Guimaraes has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal this summer.
The Gunners are hoping to add more creativity, composure, and technical ability in the middle of the park, and the Brazilian would be an exceptional acquisition.
He has been one of the best central midfielders in the league in recent seasons. He is at the peak of his career, and there have been rumours that he wants to join Arsenal.

Bruno Guimaraes move seems complicated
Meanwhile, reports have surfaced that Newcastle promised they would let Guimaraes leave for the right price, but Luke Edwards from the Telegraph has now spoken to Mehrdad Ghodoussi and Amanda Staveley, who have confirmed that no such promises have been made to the player or his representatives. This will certainly complicate any potential move for Arsenal. It seems that Newcastle are prepared to dig their heels in, and they want to keep the midfielder.
It will be interesting to see if Guimaraes decides to force an exit in the coming weeks. The opportunity to play for Arsenal will be hard to turn down for him.

Arsenal move could tempt Guimaraes
The Premier League champions could provide him with the platform to compete at the highest level and win major trophies. He is at the peak of his career, and he has clearly outgrown Newcastle. He needs to compete at a higher level, and joining one of the world’s biggest teams would be ideal.
Newcastle have lost multiple players in recent transfer windows, and losing the Brazilian would be another devastating blow. He is one of the best players at the club. They have recently sanctioned Sandro Tonali’s departure, and losing two of their best midfielders in one window could prove catastrophic for them.
he is not worth more than our first offer, he is 28, you could get someone younger and build for the future, this is a clear waste of money and a massive mistake. other teams are signing better players and we will be left behind. he’s over rated, if he was that good Newcastle wouldn’t of finished where they did
well Newcastle just signed a arsenal youngest from arsenal why can’t we have one of their players
1 of 2 things would need to happen for Bruno to go to Arsenal.
1) Arsenal pay £100 million asking price when they were hoping to
Pay half that.
2) Bruno goes on strike, which he has vowed never to do.
I genuinely don’t see either of those things happening.
