Newcastle United expert Luke Edwards of The Telegraph has already explained how Arsenal missed out on the chance to sign Bruno Guimaraes. The 24-year-old was heavily linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium ahead of the January window, though instead opted for St. James' Park.
The Brazil international has featured 15 times in the Premier League for the Magpies since penning a four-and-a-half-year deal, steering Eddie Howe's side clear of a relegation scrap. He's impressed since touching down in Tyneside, and he'll undoubtedly be keen to continue in the same vein of form in Newcastle's clash with Arsenal on the penultimate day of the season.
According to Edwards, Arsenal didn't have sufficient funding to table an offer for the tough-tackling midfielder. Now, months later, Stuttgart have agreed to buy Dinos Mavropanos, who is valued at around £8.5m, regardless of their possible relegation, football.london understand.
