European giants targeting ‘increasingly important’ Newcastle star – ‘Heart’ of Eddie Howe’s Magpies

With Bruno Guimarães now back to playing for Newcastle United, the Spanish media features a big story about his comeback.

Outlet Mundo Deportivo brings a piece calling him the ‘heart’ of the Magpies, saying he’s the ‘axis’ of Eddie Howe’s side.

Claiming the Brazilian is becoming ‘increasingly important’ at Newcastle, they say that despite the weekend’s defeat to Manchester United in the EFL Cup final, he was still one of the best on the pitch.

And after telling the whole story of how Guimarães managed to succeed at St. James’ Park, they call him a ‘coveted piece’, since he’s attracting the interest ‘of the top clubs’.

It turns out there’s only one side actually named by Mundo Deportivo, and that’s Real Madrid, who are said to be attentive to the player’s evolution at Newcastle.

Despite the interest, the piece doesn’t make it sound like the midfielder is close to the exit door at Newcastle.

They take quotes from his interview with the English media claiming he feels ‘at home’ at the club to show he wouldn’t force his way out to the Santiago Bernabeu.

Just the typical prod from the Catalan media towards the Madrid giants.
