Bruno Guimaraes has confessed that he harbours ambitions to win the Champions League with Newcastle United. In an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, the Magpies’ £33million man admitted he wants to win Europe’s elite competition on Tyneside, while insisting the club are ‘keen’ to secure the Premier League title as well.
Guimaraes has been adapting to life in the north-east since his big-money move in January, with Howe easing the Brazilian into the hostilities of English football. He stole the show in his first start for Newcastle as his breathtaking backheel finish clinched a 2-1 victory against Southampton.
The 24-year-old acknowledged the physicality of English football but insists he will not be fazed on his mission to achieve Champions League glory with the Magpies.
