Andrea Berta, soon to become Arsenal's sporting director, is advocating for the signing of Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes in the upcoming summer transfer window. Following a quiet January, Arsenal aims to strengthen its midfield, especially with potential departures of players like Thomas Partey and Jorginho. Guimaraes has previously been a target for Berta at Atletico Madrid, and reports suggest that a verbal agreement exists allowing him to leave Newcastle for approximately £60 million if the club fails to secure Champions League qualification. Arsenal's interest also extends to striker Alexander Isak from Newcastle.
Incoming Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is keen on signing Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes this summer, prioritizing midfield reinforcements as players may depart.
Bolstering in midfield is a priority for Arsenal, who could lose Thomas Partey and Jorginho, with Guimaraes topping Berta's wish list.
Despite past failed attempts to sign Guimaraes, Berta senses an opportunity as Newcastle may agree to a deal around £60m if they miss Champions League qualification.
Guimaraes, while not desperately wanting to leave Newcastle, sees an opportunity for silverware at Arsenal, a club that has admired him for some time.
