Guimaraes,
24,
spent
three
seasons
with
Lyon
before
Newcastle
secured
his
services
in
a
£40million
move
in
January.
He
scored
five
goals
in
just
11
starts
this
past
Premier
League
campaign,
and
has
added
two
goals
and
two
assists
this
season,
with
Newcastle
unbeaten
in
the
10
games
he
has
started.
The
Brazil
international
with
eight
senior
caps
to
his
name
is
a
key
part
of
why
Newcastle
currently
occupy
fourth
place
in
the
Premier
League
table,
but
they
will
now
reportedly
have
to
fend
off
interest
from
Barca.

BARCELONA
INVESTIGATE
A
MOVE
FOR
GUIMARAES
According
to
The
Sun,
Barcelona
have
officially
moved
on
from
their
chase
of
Manchester
City’s
Bernardo
Silva
and
are
instead
focusing
their
attention
on
Newcastle’s
Guimaraes.
The
report
claims
Barcelona
were
“priced
out”
of
a
move
for
Silva
after
City
slapped
a
price
tag
of
£80m
on
him
and
Guimaraes
would
certainly
not
come
cheap.
With
his
contract
tying
him
to
Newcastle
until
2026,
it
would
need
a
huge
offer
to
land
the
24-year-old.
While
their
spending
spree
will
eventually
need
to
be
balanced
out
with
some
sales,
the
Magpies
are
said
to
be
offering
Guimaraes
a
new
contract
that
will
pay
him
£200,000
per
week
to
put
any
questions
about
his
future
to
bed.
