The North London club are eager to flex their muscles in the transfer market by prising away a talismanic figure from Newcastle, a direct Premier League rival. According to reports from ESPN, there is growing optimism behind the scenes that a deal can be successfully negotiated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8216;Gunners&#8217; latest proposal is worth a total of 75 million pounds, structured as a 70 million fixed fee plus a further five million in performance-related bonuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite this aggressive move, the figure still falls slightly short of Newcastle&#8217;s valuation. The Magpies&#8217; hierarchy acknowledges that the player has been turned by the interest from the capital, although the midfielder is maintaining a professional stance and has no intention of forcing an exit from St James&#8217; Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A further complication in Newcastle&#8217;s financial calculations is a sell-on clause held by Lyon. The French side are entitled to 20% of the profit made on any resale, calculated on the difference between the fee Newcastle originally paid and the final price of any future transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brazilian international moved to the Premier League from France in 2022 in a deal worth approximately 50 million euros (roughly 43 million pounds).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sources close to the negotiations indicate a genuine expectation that the two clubs will reach an agreement in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently on holiday following his World Cup campaign with the Brazilian National Team, Bruno Guimaraes is scheduled to return to England this Friday. All parties involved anticipate that the player&#8217;s future will be resolved by early next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gunners have made the Brazilian midfielder their primary target, submitting an increased offer to test the Magpies&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1925,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1924","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1924"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1924\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1926,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1924\/revisions\/1926"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1925"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1924"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
