"It was an enquiry in the summer rather than anything firm or official on bids or talks or anything like that. Guimaraes indicated that he was happy at Newcastle and Newcastle were definitely not interested in selling him and that remains the plan right now as well. He's the captain at Newcastle which shows how important a role he plays at St James' Park and he's under contract there until 2028."
"Guimaraes has never shown any desire to leave Newcastle, where he appears to be very settled. And it would be a surprise if this were to change, although it could if they were to have a poor 2025-26 season, which could include missing out on Champions League qualification. But still, there is no indication that his stance would change even if this were to happen."
Newcastle lost Alexander Isak in the summer and face ongoing transfer speculation over several star players. Bruno Guimaraes has been indispensable since joining from Lyon in 2022 and has attracted interest from other clubs, including Manchester City. A summer enquiry from Man City did not become a formal bid, and Guimaraes has indicated he is happy and settled at Newcastle. The club does not want to sell him, he serves as captain, and his contract runs until 2028. His stance could theoretically change after a poor 2025-26 season, but there is currently no sign of that happening.
