Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has told Real Madrid to forget about trying to lure Bruno Guimaraes away from Tyneside amid speculation he is in their sights.
The 24-year-old Brazilian, a £35million January signing from Lyon, has been a major hit in the Premier League, but has been touted in both Spain and his native country as a replacement for Casemiro should he head for Manchester United.
But when asked if he could contemplate selling Guimaraes this summer, the Magpies head coach quickly responded with “absolutely not” as he looks to shut down any chance of his star asset departing after just seven months at the club.
