Chelsea are ‘likely’ to be ‘back again’ for Newcastle United ace Bruno Guimaraes this summer having previously been linked to the Brazilian midfielder. While Guimaraes is supposedly ‘on the verge’ of signing a new contract with the north-east outfit, the Telegraph report that his long-term future is more uncertain.
The report claims there is a long queue to snatch the 25-year-old, with Todd Boehly and co. keen to place themselves at the very front. This comes after the Blues were previously linked a few months back to bolster the side’s midfield options.
However, he reportedly wants to be playing for the biggest trophies around, most notably the Champions League. At present, Chelsea’s most likely route to Europe’s biggest club competition is through winning this year’s edition, while Newcastle are positioned nicely to challenge for a spot in the Premier League’s top four.
