Real Madrid’s ambitions to acquire Bruno Guimaraes will be thwarted by Newcastle United

Real Madrid’s ambitions to acquire Bruno Guimaraes will be thwarted by Newcastle United. The midfielder may have to actively request a transfer from Newcastle.

Newcastle believe Guimaraes is now worth more than £85m, according to Dean Jones’s report. The problem for Real Madrid is that it may be difficult to persuade the Magpies to sell for bids in that area. Even though the 25-year-old is content with his life in Tyneside.

Guimaraes is happy at St. James’ Park and the Newcastle fans believe he has no plans to leave anytime soon. Toon executives want to sign the Brazilian to a new deal and pay him much more. He takes home £120,000 a week now but might make as much as £200,000 with some experience.

Newcastle is hopeful that discussions with Guimaraes on a new deal will not take too much time. The Magpies are hoping to reach a contract agreement with the 25-year-old player shortly in order to stave off potential suitors. The leaders at St. James believe that this will allow them to better concentrate on their summer goals.

Eddie Howe has guided Newcastle to recent success, and the club hopes to build on that with five offseason additions. It’s no secret that Newcastle values Guimaraes highly as a key piece to their future success. Thus the team is ready to annoy Real Madrid and prevent his move.

Guimaraes is reportedly a summer transfer target for Real Madrid, although a move would be very unlikely to be approved by Newcastle. The Blancos reportedly have an interest in the 10-cap Brazil international, according to Defensa Central. In the eyes of the Galacticos, he is Jude Bellingham’s backup plan.

While it seems unlikely that they would be able to lure Bellingham away from Borussia Dortmund, the management at Santiago Bernabeu has decided to pursue Guimaraes as a backup option. Yet, Real Madrid recognizes that they may need him in order to approach Newcastle about a deal. His current deal doesn’t expire until 2026, which might cause problems. Even if Newcastle wanted to more than treble their investment to explore the sale of Guimaraes, they wouldn’t be able to. Newcastle United paid Lyon £35 million up front and a further £6.5 million in add-ons to get the 25-year-old player who Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp called “huge” for the Magpies in January of 2022.
