The £40million man from Lyon has set the Premier League alight with some superb displays in midfield for Newcastle United and this feels like merely the start from the Brazil ace.
To be honest, Guimaraes' price tag already feels like a bargain with some of Europe's big clubs now cursing themselves for not taking the chance to sign the insanely good South American star.
United 's biggest problem moving forward might be trying to find players as good as him to play alongside him! But for Eddie Howe it is a nice problem to have.
Right from the moment, he back-heeled a volley home to win the game away to Southampton back in March in his first start you knew you were dealing with a real star. The Brazil international brings Champions League quality to the table at St James' Park and has been linked with Real Madrid and Barcelona on the back of his 2022 form.
He has netted eight goals in 22 starts for the club and says he wants to "be a legend" on Tyneside - something that seems inevitable with performances like he's served up so far. It is this form in front of goal that has earned him a slot in both the Premier League and the Newcastle Fans' Footballer of the Year vote.
It's safe to say that 2022 has been a rip-roaring success and were Newcastle to go on and do something really special and qualify for the Champions League or win a domestic trophy, Bruno may not be just United's player of the season but also the player of the year all round in the Premier League.
He really is that good - and long it may it continue for a player that has captured the imagination of the fans.
You can cast your vote for Bruno in the Premier League vote and the Newcastle vote in the form above or here.
