Bruno Guimarães at Paris Saint-Germain? In recent days, the capital club’s winter transfer window has taken a new turn. If the arrival of Lucas Beraldo and the announced arrival of Gabriel Moscardo were to complete Parisian shopping for this month of January, other rumors appeared over the hours. Thus, the reigning French champion – who has never hidden his desire to strengthen himself in the midfield – has also been associated with a certain Joshua Kimmich, today in the colors of Bayern Munich. But that’s not all. Determined to improve the squad, Luis Campos and his teams could, as such, be seduced by the path leading to Bruno Guimarães, especially given the financial difficulties currently encountered by Newcastle.
Newcastle open to negotiations!
With this in mind, the English media recently indicated that the Magpies, ninth in the Premier League, could quickly have to sell several of their executives. The reason ? The losses accumulated by the Toons over the last two seasons now exceed 150 million pounds sterling (around 180 million euros). A chaotic economic situation plunging Newcastle into doubt and exposing the English club to sanctions (financial fines, ban on recruitment or even loss of points like Everton). Questioned on this subject, Darren Eales, the sporting director of NUFC, had also publicly acknowledged that any proposal for one of his players would be examined.
“It is difficult to comment specifically on certain players, but I can say that if we want to get to where we want to get, sometimes it is necessary to transfer some of your players. All the decisions we make will always be in the medium and long term interest of the club., admitted the manager regarding these most “bankable” assets. A strong outing did not fail to relaunch the Bruno Guimarães file regularly announced at Paris Saint-Germain, despite the efforts made by the Brazilian to prove his attachment to the English club. Followed for a long time by the Rouge et Bleu, as we revealed to you recently, could the former OL midfielder take the plunge and offer himself a new challenge?
The Brazilian decided between Barça and PSG but…
If we recently told you that the team chaired by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi was not the only one to appreciate him since FC Barcelona is also very attracted by the profile of the native of Rio de Janeiro, Mundo Deportivo brings, for its part, new information on this heated issue. Indeed, according to the Spanish media, the Auriverde international (18 caps, 1 goal) would, today, favor La Liga in the event of his departure from Newcastle. Even more, the player is now said to be pushing to reduce his clause by 115 million euros in order to join Catalonia. A real blow for PSG but which should not, however, definitively confirm the hopes of the Ile-de-France region. And for good reason.
If Barça seems to have the favors of the person concerned, the Culers still have a long way to go before winning the bet. Brazilian media Globo Esporte recalls, in this respect, that the Catalan team has already made a gesture but considers this operation to be complex. In financial crisis for three years, the current third in the Spanish championship, who also needs income, would be ready to pay 80 million euros in total. MD, continuing our exclusive information, also specifies that the Blaugranas would like to offer players to lower the price. It now remains to be seen whether Barça will find the means and the words to convince the Magpies to give up their star. In view of recent comments made by Eddie Howe, the challenge seems, despite everything, immense: “when you talk about your best players you want to keep them at the football club for as long as possible, that’s certainly our goal”, assured the English technician. PSG and Barça know what to expect. Newcastle too.
