Newcastle fans all say the same thing about Bruno Guimaraes leaving after new twist - 'He's as bad as Isak'

Newcastle United fans are adamant that Bruno Guimaraes has tarnished his legacy at the club after the midfielder requested to leave St James’ Park.

The 28-year-old midfielder has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in recent weeks, who are eyeing midfield reinforcements this summer.

Now, reports have emerged that Guimaraes has told Newcastle of his wish to leave the club this summer, with the Gunners now stepping up their pursuit.

As a result, many of the St James’ Park faithful are furious with the Brazil international, with some insisting that he is a “rat”.

Newcastle have insisted that they will not entertain offers for their star man this summer, but it remains to be seen if this situation will now change.

Guimaraes has been a crucial player at the Magpies for years, and played in 29 Premier League matches last season.

Newcastle United fans fume with Bruno Guimaraes

There is no doubt this summer has been an awful one of the Newcastle United faithful.

The club have already lost Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali after they failed to qualify for Europe last season.

Now, the Magpies could lose their best player after The Athletic reported on Guimaraes’ intentions to leave.

With the club already in a tough situation in the transfer market, supporters are furious and hurled criticism at the midfielder on X after the news broke.

Who could replace Guimaraes at Newcastle?

If Guimaraes is to leave St James’ Park this summer, the Magpies do have some potential replacements lined up.

Eddie Howe’s side admire Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, who has emerged as a long-term target for the club after an impressive campaign in Ligue 1 last season.

On top of this, Auxerre’s Kevin Danois is being monitored this summer as the club considers their options in the transfer window.

However, it remains to be seen if Newcastle will make a move for either player if Guimaraes is to leave the club in the coming weeks.

One thing that is clear, the Magpies will look to replace any sold midfielder this summer, meaning a replacement will be on the way to St James’ Park at some point if Guimaraes is sold.
