Bruno Guimaraes took to social media with a new message as rumours continue to swirl around the star’s future at Newcastle United.
Summer exits for Guimaraes and Alexander Isak have been tipped to fund Newcastle’s rebuild under Eddie Howe, but supporters will just be enjoying getting to watch the pair perform at St James’ Park.
While the Magpies managed a sensational 5-0 win over Crystal Palace on Wednesday, 16 April, it was the likes of Joelinton, Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy and Fabian Schar who stole the headlines.
Murphy continued his top form before scoring from an outrageous angle, with his teammates then taking it in turns to pile more misery on Oliver Glasner’s trip north.
Howe’s team have now shot up to third in the Premier League table, with just six matches of the campaign remaining, leapfrogging Nottingham Forest to within touching distance of Arsenal.

Football Insider verdict
Isak’s potential departure from Newcastle is really what strikes fear into the loyal supporters ahead of the summer transfer window, now boasting 50 goals over the last two campaigns.
Bringing in so many high-profile players, of course, has been good for the club, but it all draws attention to others at St James’ Park, with plenty linked with exits once the 2024/25 season is over.
However, bringing Champions League football could help keep many of them from eyeing moves elsewhere, with Howe’s side then competing in the best competition in the world already.
Premier League standings Points
2. Arsenal 63
3. Newcastle United 59
4. Nottingham Forest 57
5. Man City 55
6. Chelsea 54
Having lifted the Carabao Cup against Liverpool, Europa League Conference football is already secured, but that is not good enough for the calibre of players currently in the squad.
With matches remaining against Aston Villa, Chelsea, Brighton and Arsenal, it will not be a simple journey back to the Champions League, but it is certainly on the car
