Newcastle told Real Madrid and Man City wouldn't be able to lure Bruno Guimaraes away from Tyneside

Former Newcastle United striker Andy Cole believes even Manchester City and Real Madrid would struggle to tempt Bruno Guimaraes away from Tyneside. Both clubs are said to be admirers of the Brazilian international, who has been one of the standout performers since arriving in January last year.

Guimaraes is already a fan favourite and viewed as one of the best midfielders to pull on the black and white of Newcastle, in recent history. The deep-lying playmaker has helped transform the Magpies from relegation fodder into European contenders and has been dubbed world class by Cole.

The former Toon frontman believes Guimaraes and Alexander Isak are the only two superstars at the club, but believes a top-four finish could pave the way for more world class talent.
