Arsenal is confident in the possibility of securing the signing of Bruno Guimarães for a fee between £75 million and £80 million, despite Newcastle United's resistance. Negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing, even after two proposals have already been rejected by the Magpies, who remain reluctant to sell the Brazilian midfielder.
Sources close to the negotiations assure that Arsenal remains optimistic about the deal being finalized, as neither side has broken off discussions thus far. Bruno Guimarães himself has reportedly formally communicated to Newcastle his desire to be allowed to transfer to the Emirates Stadium, emphasizing his wish to move on to the next stage of his career.

According to the officials of the London club, the focus is on strengthening the midfield with Brazilian international Guimarães, although interest in Bournemouth's Alex Scott remains open. Mikel Arteta currently has a world-class duo in Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi, while Myles Lewis-Skelly has also made a name for himself towards the end of the season. However, the technical staff believes that Guimarães could bring more creativity and passing quality to the team's midfield, thanks to his ability to break lines and enhance the attacking play.

At 28 years old, Bruno Guimarães seems to be seeking new challenges at a time when Newcastle is going through a difficult phase, marked by the departures of key players such as Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali. The English club, which fell short of expectations by failing to qualify for the Champions League, now finds itself pressured to manage the desires of its top assets.
During his time at Newcastle, Guimarães won the English League Cup but may have been disappointed with the development of the sporting project at St. James’ Park. At Arsenal, the former Lyon player could aspire to more prestigious titles, especially in a team that has just been crowned Premier League champions and came very close to winning the Champions League final, which was lost only on penalties.
The Gunners' interest in Alex Scott remains, but Bournemouth is resisting a sale and is trying to convince the young midfielder to renew his contract, postponing any decision for later. For now, all eyes are on Bruno Guimarães and the possibility of him joining the squad led by Mikel Arteta, who aims to continue winning trophies next season.
