Bruno Guimaraes has revealed that Alisson, Ederson and Gabirel Jesus told him that St James' Park was 'an annoying place to play' before he joined Newcastle United.
Bruno certainly did his homework on the club ahead of completing his £40m move from Lyon back in January last year. As well as speaking to former Newcastle defender Claudio Cacapa, who is an assistant at Lyon, Bruno reached out to a number of his countrymen, who had experience of playing at St James' as opposition players.
Bruno just so happened to be on international duty when the deal went through and Brazil's sizeable Premier League contingent certainly gave the 25-year-old an idea of what to expect.
