Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Man Utd have had a \u201cmeeting\u201d with the agents of Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes.<\/p>\n
It is understood that Man Utd<\/a> are set to bring in at least two new midfielders in the summer transfer market after spending their money in forward areas last year.<\/p>\n Casemiro has already announced that he will leave Old Trafford in the summer, despite some claims Man Utd could attempt to keep him on for another season, while Manuel Ugarte is also expected to leave.<\/p>\n That has seen Man Utd linked with loads of midfielders ahead of the summer with Newcastle star Guimaraes one of the latest to be linked to Old Trafford.<\/p>\n There were reports earlier this week that claimed the Brazil international is in \u2018advanced talks\u2019<\/a> with Man Utd over a potential move at the end of the season.<\/p>\n It was claimed that he could be signed for around \u20ac80m (\u00a369m) in the summer but that \u2018renewed interest \u200bfrom Real Madrid threatens to complicate the proposed move\u2019.<\/p>\n MAILBOX: Liverpool need to sack \u2018bald fraud\u2019 Slot after European \u2018spa day\u2019; Gakpo selection is inexcusable<\/a><\/p>\n And Romano has now confirmed that talks have taken place but any notion that they are \u2018advanced\u2019 seems to be a bit premature.<\/p>\n Romano said<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s true. A meeting took place between the agents of Bruno Guimaraes and United a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n \u201cUnited maintain a good relationship with the agency. Other players are on the list.<\/p>\n \u201cThe club has a lot of things to clarify and options to study before making a decision.\u201d<\/p>\n Romano added on his YouTube channel earlier this weekend: \u201cBruno Guimaraes is a player appreciated by Man United, but don\u2019t forget how complicated it is to get players from Newcastle.<\/p>\n \u201cLet\u2019s also respect Newcastle\u2019s position, Newcastle don\u2019t want to lose all their players in the same summer. So it\u2019s not an easy deal.<\/p>\n \u201cAlso, the release clause, of \u00a3100m, was only valid in the summer of 2024 according to my information, it\u2019s no longer valid.<\/p>\n \u201cSo now a negotiation is needed. Obviously, the price, Newcastle will have their opinion, we will see what\u2019s going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n MORE MAN UTD COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 Newcastle boss Eddie Howe thinks speculation linking Guimaraes with a summer transfer to Man Utd is \u201ctotally disrespectful\u201d.<\/p>\n Howe said: \u201cIs it a problem for us? I don\u2019t necessarily think it is a problem for us. But it is unwanted news, I suppose, is the best way to put it. You don\u2019t want the players distracted. I don\u2019t know how much they will absorb that.<\/p>\n \u201cFor me, it is not the time to think about it. In the summer, you can understand those stories a little bit more because the transfer window is open.<\/p>\n \u201cTo say our captain is in discussions with another club is totally disrespectful to Bruno more than anything else, he is totally committed here.\u201d<\/p>\n Howe added: \u201cI\u2019m not going to be impolite, as this isn\u2019t the forum for that, but for me, it is just a nonsense story.<\/p>\n \u201cTo say our captain is in discussions with another club is totally disrespectful to Bruno more than anything else, he is totally committed here.<\/p>\n \u201cBruno\u2019s our captain, he\u2019s fully committed, he\u2019s injured at the moment, his only focus is coming back to fitness.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Man Utd have had a \u201cmeeting\u201d with the agents of Newcastle…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":257093,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-489241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/489241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=489241"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/489241\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/257093"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=489241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=489241"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=489241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
