Journalist Romano released his latest video on his podcast channel, discussing the transfer rumors between Newcastle United midfielder Guimaraes and Arsenal.

Romano said: "Friends, Arsenal are preparing a new offer for Bruno Guimaraes. Arsenal are ready, Arsenal want to sign Bruno, and Arsenal have reached a full agreement with Bruno Guimaraes on personal terms, so the contract is ready, the contract is finalized."

"Bruno said 'yes' to Arsenal's plan, Bruno wants to remain respectful to Newcastle United, so he doesn't want to break the relationship, but Bruno wants to leave, Bruno has made his decision to leave clear to Newcastle United. On the other hand, Newcastle United insist on not selling the player, so there must be a very good offer to change their minds, otherwise they insist on keeping Bruno."

"Arsenal will try again, Arsenal will increase their offer. Those responsible for the deal expect Arsenal to make a new offer after their previous verbal offer of £55 million plus £10 million in floating bonus clauses was rejected by Newcastle United. It is now expected that Arsenal will bid up to £70 million for Bruno, which may still not be enough to persuade Newcastle United, but it will be a way to narrow the gap."

"Arsenal hopes to complete the deal for a price slightly above £70 million, Arsenal has no intention of paying excessive transfer fees. For example, Morgan Rogers, Arsenal certainly wants this player, he is the primary target, but if the acceptable price is £90 million to £100 million, they will never pay £117 million. Now Arsenal's attitude towards Bruno is very clear, £70 million is the offer they are willing to submit, but they will not do something that could be called crazy."

"So now it depends on how Newcastle United and Arsenal will handle it, but this is definitely an interesting event to watch, because Arsenal has reached an agreement with this young man, and believe me, Mikel Arteta is pushing hard behind the scenes to sign Bruno. Arteta wants him, Arteta believes Bruno is the perfect fit for Arsenal's midfield, so this deal is constantly progressing."

"Also, don't forget, Newcastle United also completed a midfielder deal today, because the news this morning is that Newcastle United has reached an agreement with Monaco's Alassane Bamba. This young man has already undergone medical examinations and signed a contract in England, which is a long-term contract with a total value of £41 million, plus a 15% sell-on clause. So Bamba will go to Newcastle United, and now Arsenal will go all out to sign Bruno Guimaraes, he is Arsenal's priority target, and Arteta is really pushing extremely hard for this deal."
