Newcastle United are looking to reach a new deal with star midfielder Bruno Guimaraes.
The 25-year-old joined the Premier League club during the second half of last season from Lyon and has been an instant success in English football.
Guimaraes has transformed Newcastle’s midfield with his style, technical ability, work rate and composure. The midfielder has helped Newcastle control the pace of the game and has also contributed important goals.
According to a report from Soccer Insider, the Magpies are prepared to reward him with a new contract worth around £200,000 a week. They have had initial contact with the player’s field.
The report further states that the total valuation of the deal would be around £60m and Newcastle hope to secure a deal with the 25-year-old soon.
Guimaraes is undoubtedly one of the best midfielders in the Premier League at the moment, and it makes sense that Newcastle would look to lock him into a long-term contract.
The Magpies have an ambitious project at their disposal, and they hope to compete for important trophies in the coming seasons.
They will have to hang on to their best players for that to happen and securing a contract extension with Guimaraes should be a priority for them.

The Magpies are the richest club in the world at the moment, and they are unlikely to be tempted by a lucrative offer.
