Author of a great season like his team, Bruno Guimaraes is logically coveted across Europe. While no formal offer has been made to Newcastle, The Athletic argues that the former OL player is being watched in particular. With the Magpies qualifying for the Champions League, the 25-year-old midfielder is still expected to stay in England, especially as his contract expires in 3 years.
Despite this, the leaders of Newcastle want to offer the jackpot to their player to reward him for his good performance on the meadow and to cool off any desire to leave. Asked about Guimaraes’ situation after the friendly match against Brighton (2-1), Eddie Howe, his coach, was calm about an extension in the near future: “There is no doubt in my mind about his future. We would like Bruno to extend his time with us for a long time. I am not (a) part of these talks every day. These discussions are ongoing and Bruno knows how we feel about him. He is very happy here. We hope that there is (a) solution to be found.»
