Arsenal Make First Bruno Guimaraes Transfer Approach as £60m Plans Scrapped

Arsenal have reportedly stepped up efforts to sign Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, opening talks with the club. The Gunners had previously planned to pay up to £60 million, but Newcastle are holding out for a £75 million valuation, forcing Arsenal to change their approach. However, Newcastle sources have been left 'mystified' by claims that formal talks have begun. Guimaraes, 28, recently played for Brazil at the World Cup and is under contract at Newcastle until 2028. The report notes that an offer around £75 million would give Newcastle something to consider. Arsenal are preparing to defend their Premier League title and are also targeting forward reinforcements after selling Leandro Trossard.
