More transfer trouble for Newcastle? Bruno Guimaraes in demand in Saudi Arabia as speculation swirls around Alexander Isak

<p>Guimaraes is being targeted by Saudi clubs after another impressive campaign with the Magpies, according to <a href="https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/colunas/mercado-da-bola/2025/05/18/bruno-guimaraes-pode-ser-proximo-jogador-da-selecao-a-ir-para-arabia.htm" target="_blank"><em>UOL</em></a>. Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal are both admirers of the Brazilian who is said to be willing to listen to lucrative proposals, although his priority is to stay in Europe currently. The Saudi clubs are keen to bring in a big-name signing in the summer and are "looking closely" at top Brazilian superstars.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Guimaraes has regularly attracted admirers during his time at Newcastle but <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/eddie-howe-details-bruno-guimaraes-gbp100m-newcastle-release-clause-arsenal-manchester-united-psg/blt68da97dc536aec9e#cs94be7adbd9f91e70" target="_blank">manager Eddie Howe has insisted he wants the midfielder to stay</a>. Newcastle are also facing a potential battle to keep hold of striker Alexander Isak. The Swede hit 23 Premier League goals for the Magpies this season which has reportedly attracted interest from Arsenal and Liverpool. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/alexander-isak-eddie-howe-striker-secure-big-money-transfer-away-newcastle-links-arsenal-liverpool/blt6004000a488ae0cf#cs74e31567ed7298d1" target="_blank">Howe has refused to rule out a big-money transfer for Isak</a> but a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/newcastle-150m-price-tag-alexander-isak-arsenal-links-magpies-in-demand-striker/blt7add0fcd6679af01" target="_blank">lofty £150m price tag may ensure he stays at St James' Park</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Guimaraes and Isak both won their first trophy with Newcastle earlier this season when <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/newcastle-player-ratings-vs-liverpool-alexander-isak-dan-burn-carabao-cup-final/bltc18db704f858f094" target="_blank">Howe's side beat Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final</a>. The Magpies are now hoping to seal a place in the Champions League for next season and head into the final round of Premier League fixtures in third place in the table.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Victory over Everton on the final day of the campaign will be enough to secure Newcastle a place in next season's Champions League which may well be key in keeping their top stars at the club over the summer transfer window.</p>
