Bruno Guimaraes has been linked with a summer move away from Newcastle United, with Arsenal, Manchester City, and PSG interested.
According to Give Me Sport, Bruno Guimaraes prefers the move to Manchester City despite links with Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain. The Brazilian international is valued at £100 million, and it will be interesting to see if Manchester City are willing to pay that kind of money to Newcastle United.
The 26-year-old is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League, and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for Manchester City. Players like Mateo Kovacic and Matheus Nunes have been quite underwhelming for the Premier League champions, and they could use an upgrade in that position. Signing the Newcastle United midfielder could prove to be a wise decision.
Meanwhile, Manchester City are one of the biggest clubs in the country, and the opportunity to join them will be quite attractive for the South American. He will look to win major trophies with them in the coming seasons.
Arsenal and PSG to try their luck?
It will be interesting to see if Arsenal and PSG decide to try their luck with an offer for the player. Arsenal need a quality central midfielder as well and have set their sights on Bruno Guimaraes. Jorginho is in the twilight years of his career, and the Italian international will need to be replaced adequately in the years to come.
As for PSG, they are lacking a quality midfield controller right now, and Guimaraes certainly fits the profile. It will be interesting to see where the 26-year-old Newcastle United midfielder ends up eventually.
The Brazilian international has played in Ligue 1 before with Lyon, and it is fair to assume that he might be attracted to continue in English football for now. Both Arsenal and Manchester City will be attractive destinations for him, but it is understandable why he prefers a move to Manchester City.
The Premier League champions have immense resources and a world-class squad. They have a top class manager in charge as well. City have a proven track record of winning major trophies every season, whereas Arsenal are not quite at that level yet. As for Newcastle, they have an exciting project but are going through a period of rebuild. Guimaraes will want to join a club where he can win trophies now.
