Bruno Guimaraes is certainly Newcastle United’s marquee signing of the January transfer window, following his £33.5 million move from Ligue 1 side Lyon.
The midfielder was highly regarded as one of the best in his position during the first half of this season in France, which makes him even more of an impressive signing for the Magpies.
Not only that, despite being in a serious relegation battle with the potential to be playing Championship football next season, Eddie Howe’s side fought off competition from Arsenal in order to secure the signature of the 24-year-old.
