Bruno Guimaraes has described the “ Newcastle project as the best in the world” - after admitting Real Madrid came calling in the summer.
The Brazil midfielder scored twice and led Eddie Howe’s side to their biggest win for more than six years as Brentford were given the jitters by the Geordies’ intensity. No wonder Guimaraes, who has netted seven goals since signing in January for £35m, was looked at by the Spanish giants in August and will continue to be monitored.
He said: “I feel at home here! Real Madrid is the best team in the world. It is nice. It was just a conversation, but it is nothing.”
