Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has been linked with a move away from the Tyneside club in recent months.
Bruno Guimaraes is reportedly a target for Manchester City, but an update from Football Insider has claimed that the Brazilian international does not have a release clause in his contract with Newcastle United anymore.
There have been rumours that the Brazilian midfielder has a £100 million clause in his contract. However, the Football Insider report has now refuted those claims. It seems that Manchester City will have to negotiate a price for the 27-year-old if they want to sign him.
It will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer for Bruno Guimaraes in the coming weeks after showing interest in him. The Brazilian international has established himself as one of the best central midfielders in the country, and he could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for Manchester City.
The Premier League champions need more quality and depth in the middle of the park. The 27-year-old will add creativity and control to the side. He could prove to be a major upgrade on the likes of Mateo Kovacic and Matheus Nunes.
Newcastle United might not be keen on a sale
It remains to be seen whether Newcastle United are prepared to sanction his departure any time soon. The 27-year-old is an indispensable asset for them, and he has been one of the first names on the team sheet since joining the club.
Newcastle United are looking to build a formidable side capable of winning major trophies. They cannot afford to sell their best players if they want to compete at that level. The Magpies are one of the wealthiest clubs in the world and they do not need to sell their best players for money. It will be interesting to see if they decide to turn down any approaches for their star midfielder.
Meanwhile, the midfielder is likely to be attracted to the idea of joining Manchester City. It would be a huge step up in his career, and he would get to push for major trophies regularly. Manchester City have a proven track record of pushing for trophies regularly, and they could help him win some silverware.
