Man United eye £100m Brazilian star midfielder as Sofyan Amrabat linked with surprise Juventus move

According to Reports from the Mirror, the one midfielder who could arrive at Old Trafford this summer is Newcastle United’s Bruno Guimaraes.

The Brazilian has a release clause of £100 million and could be a target given the arrival of Dan Ashworth as sporting director is expected soon.

The paper writes: “Manchester United are set to launch a summer move for Newcastle star Bruno Guimaraes as Dan Ashworth prepares to take over as sporting director.

“Ashworth joined Newcastle six months after Guimaraes arrived at St James’ Park, quickly becoming a huge fan of the midfielder. But he is currently on gardening leave as United negotiate a compensation fee so they can hand him the reins at Old Trafford.

“Those talks are expected to be completed soon and it appears Ashworth will launch a raid on his soon-to-be former club. With The Red Devils in need of a major boost to their squad, Guimaraes has emerged as a lead target.

“Ashworth is described as being in ‘love with his game’ and has given his endorsement to making a move for the Newcastle star. But United would have to fork out a fee of £100 million in order to bring him to Old Trafford.”
