You can't accuse Bruno Guimaraes of lacking ambition since his move to Tyneside just 10 months ago. From the moment he arrived at Newcastle United there was talk of winning the Premier League and Champions League before he'd even kicked a ball in and white.
The Brazilian has earned himself fan favouritism in the north east after a stellar 2022 and may have went up in the estimation of supporters once more on Wednesday evening after talking up the chances of European football at St James' Park as early as next season.
“It’s possible,” said Guimaraes, when asked whether a top-four finish was a realistic target this season. “We need to think game by game, and in the end we will have a look what we did. But it’s nice to get another win here.”
