Bruno Guimaraes labelled ‘just like Alexander Isak’ as new Arsenal signing slammed for Newcastle exit

Wait 5 sec.

Bruno Guimaraes shouldn’t have been able to engineer a nice Newcastle exit – his departure was no different to Alexander Isak.That is the view from talkSPORT’s Inside The Toon host Shaun Custis, who believes the former Magpies captain conned the fans into believing that he was embedded as part of the Geordie nation.Bruno Guimaraes was presented to Arsenal fans ahead of the club’s 3-2 defeat to Borussia DortmundGettyGuimaraes has officially completed a £75million move to Arsenal 34 months into the five-year contract extension he signed at St James’ Park in October 2023.The 28-year-old had agreed personal terms with the Gunners by the start of July and made steps to ensure the deal got over the line.The Brazil international used super agent Kia Joorabchian to act as an intermediary to handle a lot of the day-to-day negotiating.Such moves helped knock down Newcastle’s original £100m valuation of their captain, while Guimaraes also asked the club to delay his pre-season travel plans as a switch to north London edged closer.After the deal was confirmed, the midfielder released an emotional statement labelling his Toon exit as one of his toughest decisions.However, talkSPORT host and Magpies fan Custis took a withering verdict of the post, considering it’s stark contrast to his smiley-faced unveiling at his new club.
