Newcastle United’s Bruno Guimaraes has hinted that he plans to stay at the club amid transfer rumors linking him to Manchester City. City are looking to strengthen their midfield, with Guimaraes being one of the options considered. Despite interest from top clubs like Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, and Manchester United, Guimaraes seems intent on remaining with Newcastle, where he recently bought a new house in the North East.

The 26-year-old midfielder has already made a significant impact at Newcastle since joining from Olympique Lyonnais in January 2022, accumulating over 100 appearances and contributing goals and assists. Despite speculation about his future and a rumored £100 million release clause, there has been no firm interest in Guimaraes at that valuation. Newcastle remains optimistic that he will stay beyond the current season and continue to be a key player in the club’s ambitious new project under Saudi Arabian ownership.

Guimaraes’ situation highlights the competition for his signature, with City likely to be disappointed as he shows signs of commitment to Newcastle. The player’s release clause could still attract interest close to the end of the transfer window, but for now, it seems Guimaraes is focused on staying with his current club and helping them achieve their objectives in the seasons ahead.
