Chelsea to go after Real Madrid target Bruno Guimaraes

Bruno Guimaraes is continuing to show his good form since arriving at Newcastle United last January. He became a main man for the Magpies and he is an indispensable starter for Eddie Howe. 

Therefore, despite Real Madrid interest in getting hold of the footballer in the summer, he decided to stay in the Premier League and earn another suitor in Chelsea. According to 'Goal', Graham Potter wants to get the player for next summer. 

Currently, Newcastle United could not be in a better position. They are fourth in the Premier League with the same amount of points as the Londoners. The Blues are in good form since the arrival of the former Brighton manager.

Bruno Guimaraes has played ten competitive matches this season, with a total of 741 minutes in which he has scored two goals and provided two assists. Eddie Howe does not want to lose him irregardless of how much they offer him. In fact, on many occasions, he showed his refusal to a possible signing, proof that he is not for sale at all.

Therefore, according to Fabrizio Romano, the club's plan is to renew him with a new long term contract and better salarial conditions. Many clubs who are interested in signing the midfielder would be the reason for this decision. In 'The Sun', the Newcastle sporting director spoke and said they will do everything possible to keep the player. "I don't want to sell Bruno at all. He is a top player and a very important part of our journey."

On the other hand, they said that they will have to fight, at any moment, with things related to 'Financial Fair Play' or something he always wanted to achieve to have to let him leave. "I cannot lie and say that we'll never have to sell anyone," he concluded.
