Official: Bruno Guimaraes joins Arsenal under Arteta's command

It's official: Bruno Guimaraes has become Arsenal's newest signing this Saturday. The 28-year-old Brazilian midfielder arrives from Newcastle, where he had two years left on his contract.

According to English media cited by Mundo Deportivo, Arsenal will pay 87 million euros to the Saint James' Park club—a figure higher than the 75 million euros mentioned earlier. The international midfielder has signed with the Emirates until 2030 and becomes a significant reinforcement for the Gunners' midfield. The former Newcastle captain explained his departure clearly: "It's a tough decision, because Newcastle means a lot to me, but I want to win trophies, make history, and I want this challenge." The fact that the Magpies failed to qualify for any European competition proved decisive in his departure. Arsenal confirmed the news on social media, describing him as "our warrior," "a force of nature," and "another Premier League giant."
