Following the recent reports from Brazil claiming Paris Saint Germain are going after Newcastle United star Bruno Guimarães, we now get to see another interesting story on the player’s future.
This fresh piece comes from Globo Esporte. They confirm that the French club are keen on signing the player, but add that Barcelona are also chasing him, and may even have an advantage to get him signed.
According to the report, Bruno Guimarães has an agreement with Newcastle to leave for Barça or Real Madrid.
It means that in case either of the La Liga giants place bids for him, then the Magpies would negotiate him for less than his £100m release clause.
What works in Newcastle’s favour is that the Camp Nou side are going through a difficult financial time, and that’s why they’d like to include some players in a potential deal, trying to make the whole package be worth €80m.
Globo Esporte says Newcastle may feel the need to sell some stars in the coming months, but a January transfer is actually ruled out, with a potential departure only taking place in the summer.
