Completed: In order to increase…, Arsenal and Newcastle come to a deal for the £80 million offensive midfield player.

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are reportedly gearing up to compete with Manchester City and Arsenal for the signing of Newcastle United’s Bruno Guimaraes, report Goal.com. The French giants are looking to bolster their midfield by replacing Manuel Ugarte, who has not met expectations since his high-profile transfer from Sporting CP.

Manuel Ugarte’s Struggles at PSG

Signed for a significant fee of €60m (£52m) before the 2023-24 season, Ugarte has struggled to make an impact at PSG. The Uruguayan midfielder has appeared in 37 matches across all competitions, contributing three assists. Despite the investment, Ugarte has failed to establish himself as a key player for the Ligue 1 champions, leading to speculation about his future at the club.

 

PSG’s Midfield Wishlist

According to Le10sport, PSG’s sporting director Luis Campos is already exploring alternatives to Ugarte. The shortlist includes high-profile names like Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich and Newcastle’s Bruno Guimaraes. Guimaraes, in particular, has attracted significant interest from top European clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City. The Brazilian midfielder signed a new contract with Newcastle last summer, which includes a £100m release clause, valid until 2028.
