Arsenal have signed midfielder Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle in a £75m transfer. The 28-year-old has put pen to paper on a four-year deal with a further one-year option, set to wear the no. 39 shirt for the Gunners.

Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta stated that Guimaraes will bring strong leadership and allow Mikel Arteta to further develop the team's playing style. The move strengthens the heart of the Arsenal squad, providing versatility as both a defensive and box-to-box midfielder.

Newcastle's departure of the Brazil international means they have now surpassed £240m in player sales this summer. This follows significant moves including Anthony Gordon to Barcelona and Sandro Tonali to Spurs, marking a turbulent period for the Magpies.
