Newcastle United’s midfield rebuild could lead them towards another player with proven Premier League experience, with Bayern Munich’s João Palhinha emerging as a possible late-window addition. The Magpies have been forced into significant changes after losing both Bruno Guimarães and Sandro Tonali this summer. Want more CaughtOffside coverage?

The back-and-forth over whether Arsenal and Newcastle are actually in talks, the plane trackings and the staunch denials in the North East are finally at an end.
Following a damaging transfer window last summer, and a bruising domestic season, Newcastle have shifted their approach. If Sandro Tonali and Anthony Gordon's departures to Tottenham and Barcelona were reluctantly needed to enable Newcastle to truly reinvest, the exit of captain Bruno Guimaraes to Arsenal had never been part of the plan.
Niko Kovac masterminded Borussia Dortmund’s 3-2 win over Arsenal (Credits: Sportimage) Borussia Dortmund head coach Niko Kovac offered one struggling Arsenal star a surprising vote of confidence following Sunday’s 3-2 win. Mikel Arteta’s side slumped to a second consecutive pre-season defeat, this time in front of their own fans at Emirates Stadium. Although he got on the scoresheet with a second half penalty, it was another disappointing afternoon for Viktor Gyokeres. The Sweden international looked well off the pace against Real Betis last week in his first outing since his World Cup exploits against Sweden and was again the focus of much criticism in the aftermath of yesterday’s reversal.

Despite another poor showing, Kovac singled out the former Sporting Lisbon star for surprise praise when asked if any Arsenal players caught his eye. He said: ‘There are a lot of top players when you see Gyokeres he is strong, he is quick, he is fast he is very direct. ‘We know him very well but I can mention all the players.’ Viktor Gyokeres struggled in Arsenal’s defeat against Borussia Dortmund (Credits: Alamy Live News.) Arteta, meanwhile, has backed ‘warrior’ Bruno Guimaraes to ‘ignite something different’ in the Premier League champions. Brazil midfielder Guimaraes was introduced to Gunners fans ahead of Sunday’s 3-2 defeat after completing his £75million move from Newcastle.

Arsenal were successful with a £75m transfer bid for Newcastle skipper Bruno Guimaraes (Picture: Getty) Dietmar Hamann has backed Bruno Guimaraes to add a new dimension to Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side – but claims the midfielder is still yet to prove he is ‘top class’. Arsenal identified Guimaraes as a top target at the start of the summer transfer window, with the Premier League champions eager to add strength to their title-winning midfield. The Brazilian captained Newcastle to their first domestic trophy in 70 years under Eddie Howe and and is considered one of the most sought-after central midfielders in the English game. While Newcastle had initially been reluctant to lose Guimaraes to a direct rival, the Gunners broke the Magpies’ resistance with a successful £75million bid – having missed out on the 28-year-old when he was at Lyon four-and-a-half years ago.
