Alan Shearer reacts to ‘thank you for everything’ post from Newcastle’s Guimaraes
Newcastle legend Alan Shearer reacted to a heartfelt message from exit-linked Bruno Guimaraes on social media.
During the Magpies’ best season this century, the Brazilian has been an integral part of England target Eddie Howe‘s side.
The 27-year-old’s continued good form since his move to the Premier League has attracted admiring eyes, particularly from Arsenal.
But Pete O’Rourke revealed exclusively to Football Insider in March that Newcastle were confident of keeping Guimaraes if they qualified for the Champions League.
In spite of a howler from the usually-dependable Jacob Murphy leading to a 1-0 loss to Everton, the Magpies scraped in thanks to Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest’s defeats on the final day of the season.

This puts Newcastle in a position to capitalise next season. They have one of the Premier League’s best strikers and a combination of world-class midfielders.
