Arsenal and Bruno Guimaraes have reportedly reached an agreement on personal terms, with the Brazilian midfielder now back from the World Cup with his national team.
The Gunners are eager to sign Guimaraes, and the player is believed to be open to the move despite Newcastle United maintaining that he is not available for transfer. The Magpies have repeatedly insisted that they do not want to lose one of their most important players.
Arsenal Push Forward With Guimaraes Pursuit
According to Standard Sport, Guimaraes has agreed a five-year contract with Arsenal this summer. The report states that the midfielder and the Gunners have reached an understanding over personal terms, meaning Arsenal must now focus on reaching an agreement with Newcastle.
The deal remains difficult to complete because Newcastle are determined to keep its captain. Guimaraes is considered one of the most influential players in their squad, and the club have no desire to allow him to leave during the current transfer window.
Arsenal are continuing their efforts because the agreement with the player encourages them that a transfer could be possible. The Gunners now need to convince Newcastle to change their position and enter discussions over a potential move.
Newcastle Face Pressure Over Future
Guimaraes has played an important role at Newcastle and remains a central figure for the club. Their reluctance to sell him is understandable because replacing a player of his quality would be a major challenge.
However, if the midfielder pushes for a departure, Newcastle may have to consider whether allowing him to leave is the best decision for all parties. There is still enough time remaining in the transfer window for negotiations to take place.
Arsenal will continue working on the transfer as they look to strengthen their squad with a player they believe can make a significant difference. Guimaraes’ willingness to join the Gunners could become an important factor if discussions with Newcastle progress in the coming weeks.

You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.
CALLING ALL ARSENAL FANS! Anyone who would like to contribute an Article or Video opinion piece on JustArsenal, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us through this link…
Please explain to me how they can have agreed personal terms without ever having spoken to Newcastle let alone made a formal offer?
I can’t just wander into your office building and ask if you’d like to work for me instead.
there’s a loop hole
so Arsenal won’t technically speak to player but agents / representatives /;those in-between
He’s a very good player (class)
But a 28-29 year old going for 70plus million seems a lot IMO but apparently we have 800 million to spend so….
We wasted 130 odd on Eze and Madeuke so obviously moneys no object ATM .
Gone are the days when teams actually scouted for rough gems ,now it’s just pickpocket the lower teams of their best players and let them do all the hard work and make a profit.
Top 6 can just right players off .
“130 odd wasted”😂………..funny how Tuchel has also wasted two spots in the England WC squad on them and played them both!
mate I wouldn’t go off that squad as a measurement too much
he also called up Spence , Burn , Henderson , Toney etc
This is true but on the basis that the smaller clubs don’t have vast resources to buy, buy, buy, I believe that Tuchel has tried to blend the talent at his disposal rather than squeeze in the big names and egos which has failed in the past. The fact that Merino who wasn’t fancied by many on JA has been a first class addition to our squad and to Spain as well which shows a good mix is vital
Anyway, we’ll find out later😬
Well obviously we haven’t had a chance to see Henderson (and won’t now) or Toney, Burn had a good game when he came on though Spence was at best iffy. It is a squad after all. I just don’t agree that Eze and Madueke were a waste of money, far from it.
Henderson did come on
think Maduake was a poor buy
no end product mate
Yea they’ve played well against the mighty Ghana , Panama and Conga 😂
Did they get a look in against Mexico ?
They didn’t need to as we were dominant with the side we put out, and your point about the other games is? 🤷♂️
Shame, u condem eze n madueke signing a waste when we shouldn’t be thinking of signing a top midfielder if only zubi has impressed.
IM0 zubi is very much the worst of the bunch
Arsenal guilty of blatantly tapping up a player before even talking to selling club. FA charges and points deduction incoming
You don’t know that’s a fact, the use of agents are the ones pulling the strings and do most of the bidding on both sides, obviously they are talking to the player. A technicality yes, but no charges incoming!
Nowadays things are different you talk to player first and convinced him about your project then you make a official offer to the selling club because you can’t just agree transfer fee without knowing player’s position
Guys pls what position will guimares play if arsenal sign him?
actual cost of Eze and Madueke was 115 Million and both players played their part in us winning the Premier League for the first time in 22 Years.800 Million to spend on players!!!!!!!!!………? we are not City and its called PSR
Merino at it again, but what a player Dani Olmo is, never
makes an error and always passes forward..
Rodri once again showing how unstoppable he is running Spain’s entire game. Will be interesting to see how they deal with France who can go toe-to-toe with their midfield.
Bruno has done all he can. We’re still restricted with these ridiculous financial rules. How can Spurs spend a fortune buying players, yet have just avoided relegation.
We had 3 years building a team, and we’re worse off now than back then. Who wants to go through all that rebuilding again. I can’t blame those who have moved on, and thank them for the memories.
