Newcastle United have reached an agreement with Bruno Guimaraes on a new contract, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Magpies were eager to sign a new contract with their 25-year-old midfielder, and they have finally done so.
Guimaraes rose to prominence while playing for Olympique Lyon. His remarkable exploits for the French club drew a lot of attention, and a number of major clubs were interested in signing him. Newcastle United, on the other hand, were able to get his services.
Following the takeover, the 25-year-old was one of their star additions. And, since joining them in January 2022, he has grown from strength to strength. The Brazil international has cemented his place in Newcastle’s midfield.
Guimaraes was instrumental in enabling them finish in the top four of the Premier League last season and qualify for the Champions League for the first time in nearly two decades.
While the 25-year-old still has nearly three years left on his deal with the club, he was much sought after. The Magpies did not want to lose the Brazilian phenomenon at any cost, so they opted to extend his stay and put a stop to any suspicions.
The emphasis was on rewarding him for his efforts with better terms and assuring his future with the club. The Magpies have been in talks with the players’ representation for some time.
According to the source, both parties have finally reached an agreement, and an official announcement regarding the former Lyon midfielder’s new deal will be made soon.
His new contract will last until the summer of 2028. And, according to Romano, his new deal includes a release clause worth around £100 million. The new contract, together with the large release clause, will ensure that the Magpies retain their top player for many years to come.
