HERE WE GO…Real Madrid set to sign Newcastle United’s big big game player to replace Toni Kroos, it is happening and taken everyone by surprise
Real Madrid has reportedly identified Newcastle United’s star midfielder, Bruno Guimaraes, as a prime candidate to bolster their midfield. This move comes as the club undergoes significant changes following the recent retirement of Toni Kroos and the imminent departure of Luka Modric. According to sources from Fichajes, despite the challenges of replacing legends like Kroos and Modric, Los Blancos are optimistic that Guimaraes has the potential to succeed at the Bernabéu.
Acquiring the services of Guimaraes will not be straightforward. The Brazilian midfielder, who has previously attracted interest from Premier League giants such as Manchester City and Arsenal, remains a hot commodity. Despite the expiration of his £100 million release clause, no club has made a formal approach for him. Newcastle, no longer shielded by the hefty release clause, still holds a strong position since Guimaraes has four years remaining on his contract.
Guimaraes appears settled and content at St. James’ Park, showing no immediate desire to depart from the Northeast. However, the allure of Real Madrid has historically proven irresistible, even to the most loyal players. Football fans have seen time and again how the opportunity to play for the Spanish giants can sway even the most dedicated stars.
In related news, football has witnessed a remarkable record set by a player in major international tournaments. After receiving a yellow card in a recent clash against England, the player has now been booked eight times in major international competitions—a record in world football. This tally includes appearances in three European Championships (2016, 2020, 2024) and three World Cups (2014, 2018, 2022), accumulating eight bookings over 20 matches.
Reflecting on the recent exit after a penalty shootout loss to England, the player took to social media to express his mixed emotions. He acknowledged the cruelty of football and the difficulty in finding the right words to describe the disappointment. Despite this setback, he expressed immense pride in his team’s achievements and shared an optimistic message for the future.
“Sometimes football can be cruel, and it will take a few days to get over it. But I am also so proud of this team and what we achieved!! See you soon,” he wrote.
As Real Madrid continues its quest to rebuild its midfield, the potential signing of Bruno Guimaraes could mark a significant step in the club’s evolution. While Newcastle United fans hope to retain their star player, the football world will be watching closely to see if Guimaraes’ loyalty can withstand the allure of one of the sport’s most storied clubs.
