Danny Murphy believes Liverpool should forget about signing Newcastle United talisman Bruno Guimaraes this summer.
Various reports in recent weeks have suggested the Reds are considering an approach for the Brazilian. Since signing for the Magpies last January, Guimaraes has emerged as one of the Premier League’s top midfielders and as a Tyneside cult hero.
The 25-year-old starred in Newcastle’s emphatic 4-1 win over Everton in midweek, setting up Callum Wilson for his 20-yard stunner to make it 3-0. A composed, deep-lying midfielder, Guimaraes also boasts a high-pressing, heavy-metal game suited for a place in Jurgen Klopp’s engine room.
