Teases Bruno Guimaraes Following a tough summer and transfer rumour, Newcastle United returns.
Bruno Guimaraes teases Newcastle United’s comeback following discouraging summer transfer rumours.
The 6′ 5in defender, who has 57 caps for his nation, played for Serbia at Euro 2024. After playing in 263 games over seven seasons for Fiorentina, he now plays for Forest for an estimated £12 million.
As they sought Sven Botman and Diego Carlos during the first transfer window after the club’s acquisition, Newcastle first noted the defender as a possible transfer possibility in January 2022. That month, the Magpies recruited Dan Burn from Brighton & Hove Albion, and in the summer, they signed Botman again.
After agreeing to a £35 million deal with Newcastle for midfielder Elliot Anderson last month, Forest’s summer transfer spending this window has increased to almost £56 million with Milenkovic’s move to the City Ground. Nuno Espírito Santo’s team has also finalised a number of quiet additions, including Carlos Miguel, Eric da Silva Moreira, and Marko Stamenić.
Due to their violation of the Premier League Profitability and Sustainability Rules, Forest lost four points in the previous season. The club narrowly managed to avoid relegation in the last week of the season after finishing 17th in the table due to the deduction.
