Newcastle’s next blockbuster sale: Guimaraes set for Arsenal move

The Abschluss of the Nächster Blockbuster-Verkauf sees 28‑year‑old Brazilian Bruno Guimaraes move from Newcastle United to Arsenal for a reported 75 million pounds (≈87.5 million euros). The deal, confirmed after tough Verhandlungen, gives the Gunners a coveted midfield option.

Guimaraes is Arsenal’s Wunschspieler for the Mittelfeld and, as the source notes, this is no longer a Geheimnis. The Schritt from Newcastle United to the Gunners follows a Durchbruch between the Klubs, with both parties reporting an agreed Ablöse Höhe of 75 million Pfund.

At a fee of 75 million Pfund, the transfer would become the fifth‑most expensive of the Sommer, pushing former teammate Anthony Gordon down the list after his 80 million‑euro move to Barcelona. The Wechsel therefore represents a major Verkauf for Newcastle, a Klub that has already seen a 108 million‑euro transfer of Sandro Tonali to Tottenham Hotspur.

Newcastle has granted Guimaraes permission to travel for a medical at Arsenal, suggesting the transfer is imminent. This Share on XShare and RedditCopy note that the club’s recent activity includes a total incoming sum of 275 million euros if Guimaraes joins, against spending of over 160 million euros on arrivals such as Bazoumana Touré for 50 million euros from TSG Hoffenheim.

Further activity may involve a pursuit of Felix Nmecha from Borussia Dortmund, with the German club would demand around 120 million euros for the midfielder. Such a move would help Newcastle replace central‑midfield departures.

At Arsenal, Guimaraes will expand the Mittelfeld options for manager Mikel Arteta, joining Martin Zubimendi, Declan Rice, Mikel Merino, Martin Ødegaard and occasional central‑midfield contributions from Kai Havertz. Trotz the high Ablöse, he must first prove himself at the Gunners.

Guimaraes’ European journey began in the Sommer of 2020 when he transferred from Athletico Paranaense to Olympique Lyon for 20 million euros. Two years later he moved to Newcastle for over 50 million euros, setting the stage for his latest step to Arsenal.
