That means the deal is ready and the deal is done. Bruno has said yes to the Arsenal project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>According to Romano, Guimar\u00e3es has made it clear to the Newcastle management that he wants to join Mikel Arteta&#8217;s team.<\/p>\n<p>The midfielder remains respectful of Newcastle and hopes to avoid a bitter exit, but it is clear he is looking for a new challenge.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Bruno wants to be respectful to Newcastle so he doesn&#8217;t want to break up the relationship, but Bruno wants to go. Bruno has made it clear to Newcastle that he is going.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Newcastle had previously rejected a verbal offer from Arsenal, which included an offer of \u00a355m plus \u00a310m worth of add-ons.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Gunners are now expected to test Newcastle&#8217;s resolve with a formal offer worth up to \u00a370m.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle insist they do not want to sell him, but Arsenal hope they can negotiate a bid of just over \u00a370 million.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal remain disciplined after recently withdrawing from negotiations when Morgan Rodgers&#8217; price soared to \u00a3117m, but Arteta is moving relentlessly behind the scenes to sign Guimar\u00e3es.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"query-text-line ng-star-inserted\">\u201cThe expectation from those in charge of the contract is that Arsenal will make a fresh bid after reaching the \u00a355m plus \u00a310m extra fee that Newcastle rejected. These were all verbal offers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"query-text-line ng-star-inserted\">&#8220;Arsenal are currently expected to have a transfer fee of \u00a370m for Bruno Guimar\u00e3es. \u00a370m probably won&#8217;t be enough to convince Newcastle yet, but it will get them closer. Arsenal are therefore hoping to strike a deal for just over \u00a370m.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"query-text-line ng-star-inserted\">Arsenal have no intention of overpaying. Morgan Rodgers, for example, Arsenal wanted that player, of course he was the top target, but for \u00a390m-100m&#8230;they were never going to pay \u00a3117m. When it comes to Bruno, Arsenal are very clear. \u00a370 million is a price we&#8217;re happy to offer, but we&#8217;re not looking to do something completely crazy. Newcastle and Arsenal will therefore have to wait and see what happens next.<\/p>\n<p class=\"query-text-line ng-star-inserted\">But it&#8217;s definitely interesting to follow. Because Arsenal have reached an agreement with this boy. And believe me &#8211; behind the scenes,[Mikel]Arteta is pushing like crazy to sign Guimar\u00e3es. Arteta wants him. Arteta believes Bruno is the perfect player for Arsenal&#8217;s midfield. So this is a work in progress. \u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"6\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_will_Guimaraes_improve_Arsenals_midfield\"><\/span>How will Guimar\u00e3es improve Arsenal&#8217;s midfield?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">The expected arrival of Bruno Guimar\u00e3es will be a game-changing signing for Arsenal&#8217;s engine room.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">Recognized as one of the most complete central midfielders in European football, the Brazilian combines elite defensive tenacity with exceptional press resistance and creative distribution.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">Guimar\u00e3es will bring more control and composure to Arsenal&#8217;s midfield. The Brazilian is comfortable in possession under pressure and has a passing range that dictates tempo, helping the Gunners progress the ball more effectively from deep areas.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Want more Catchoffside coverage?

Guimar\u00e3es is an excellent ball-winner and reads the game well, allowing teammates like Declan Rice to play more freely while providing additional protection in front of the back four.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">Guimar\u00e3es shows creativity not only with his defensive qualities, but also with his ability to spot line-breaking passes and quickly transform defense into attack.
