It is no secret that as it stands the current Manchester City squad is in desperate need of quality support for Rodri. That appears to be the biggest priority for the world champions to find a player capable of giving Rodri the support he needs. A new report suggests that City may move for a Newcastle midfielder as they seek to fill the biggest in the Manchester City squad.
Danny Rust has reported for GIVEMESPORT that Newcastle United are ‘fearful’ of Manchester City luring Bruno Guimaraes to the Etihad this summer. Furthermore, Rust reports that Manchester City are contemplating moving for the Newcastle midfielder. Lastly, Rust also reports that City are confident that Guimaraes would be keen to join Manchester this summer.
Is a Manchester City move for Bruno Guimaraes imminent?
Manchester City’s need for support for Rodri is well known. It is by far the biggest weakness of the champion’s squad. But despite it being a desperate need for City it isn’t a simple task to find support for Rodri. Despite this fact, Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes appears to be almost the ideal candidate for the role.
The qualities of Guimaraes are well-known. He has become one of the best midfielders in the Premier League during his time at Newcastle. The form he has shown for the Magpies has been so good that it is clear that he could play for a bigger club. Based on Danny Rust’s report Manchester City may be the club for Guimaraes to get the opportunity to play on a bigger stage.
But is a City move for Bruno Guimaraes imminent? It has been a case of waiting all summer for the champions to move for a player who can support Rodri. Due to the busy summer of internationals, it has been a quiet transfer window to date. But in the past week, it has begun to spring into life. Based on this City could be about to move for Bruno Guimaraes. Danny Rust’s report does give the impression that City move for Guimaraes shortly. It is now a matter of waiting to see what the champions decide to do going forward.
If Manchester City do believe that Guimaraes is the right player to support Rodri then a City move for the Newcastle midfielder would be expected in the near future. But Rust’s report suggests that City could test Newcastle’s resolve to keep their star imminently.
