Manchester City are keen to explore a move for Bruno Guimaraes ahead of the January window, as Pep Guardiola looks for a Rodri replacement. 

According to TBR, Bruno Guimaraes is still a big target for Manchester City ahead of the January window. Pep Guardiola could urge the club to explore a move for the Brazilian in the winter market as he continued his search for a solid Rodri replacement. 

Manchester City continued their struggle without Rodri in their squad, as Tottenham inflicted their latest defeat at the weekend. That loss meant that Pep Guardiola lost five games in a row for the first time in his career, as they continued to struggle on the pitch without their influential Spanish midfielder and Ballon d’Or winner. 

Hence, fans want to bring a replacement for the Spaniard in January, as Manchester City is in the market for a new option. They have links to Martin Zubimendi, with reports stating the club is willing to trigger his release clause, although convincing the player will be the real challenge. 

Manchester City have also enquired about Atalanta’s Ederson, as a deal is possible given his ready availability for the right price. Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola has continued to admire Bruno Guimaraes and could urge the club to explore a move for the Newcastle United star. 

Manchester City were expected to ramp up their chase for the Brazilian, who remains Newcastle’s highest-paid star with a £160k-a-week deal in place. Hence, there’s a challenge to bring the midfielder in January, as the Magpies will demand a club-record price to sell him. 

Will Man City sign Bruno Guimaraes? 

Manchester City may have the funds to sign a player of Guimaraes’ calibre ahead of January, and his arrival could be a game-changer for them. However, unlike the summer window, the Brazilian no longer has a £100 million release clause, meaning Newcastle United hold all the cards when it comes to his transfer. 

Guimaraes signing for Man City is one thing, but Newcastle United losing him will come as a major blow to their plans for the season. The Magpies are vying for a top-four place, and should they let the Brazilian leave, Eddie Howe will likely concede the idea of qualifying for the Champions League for next season. Hence, a move for the £160k-a-week star in the January window might not materialise, as Man City may have to wait until next summer.
