According to TNT Sports, Newcastle are eager to sign the midfielder to an improved and lengthy contract extension, making him their highest paid player to ward off interest.
Last week, Goal linked Chelsea with him, with clubs reportedly monitoring his contract status ahead of potential January offers.
Guimaraes is playing a major role in Newcastle United’s impressive start to the 2022-23 season.
The 24-year-old Brazilian midfielder has scored two goals and provided two assists for the Magpies this Premier League season.
Guimaraes joined Newcastle from Lyon in January on a four-and-a-half-year contract.
Newcastle have been in terrific form this season and currently perched fourth in the Premier League table.

“It runs through generations and that won’t stop.
