After provisionally agreeing a deal with Lyon, Bruno Guimaraes is set to undergo a medical today ahead of the Brazilian's proposed move to Newcastle United.
Newcastle had a £33.5m bid accepted by Lyon for Guimaraes on Wednesday after the midfielder had been previously linked with Arsenal and Manchester United, and the 24-year-old is expected to have his medical today in Brazil with the midfielder on international duty.
If the Magpies were to complete the signing of Guimaraes without any issues, it should be Newcastle's third signing of the transfer window after the arrival of Kieran Trippier and Chris Wood earlier this month.
