Manchester City are a short 6/5 with Sky Bet to acquire Bruno Guimaraes in the summer.

Although Guimaraes is contracted with Newcastle until 2028 - prospective bidders can sign the Brazilian by activating his £100 million release clause before June 24.

Manchester City are 6/5 to sign Bruno Guimaraes in the summer, while Arsenal are next at 9/2

And given his form for the Magpies this season - of which consisted of seven goals and ten assists across all competitions - there's predictably plenty of interest in the 26-year-old.

Arsenal are another club who are reportedly interested in Guimaraes - and they currently sit as the second-favourite in the market behind City at 9/2.

Arsenal finished second in the Premier League in 2023-24 and appear to be just one or two players away from winning their first title in two decades.

That begs the question - could Guimaraes be the Gunners' missing piece?

Sky Bet favourites to sign Bruno Guimaraes before September 3, 2024:

Manchester City 6/5

Arsenal 9/2
