So check it out at buymesoda .com.The breaking news is all about Bruno Gimaraes.and this is what the breaking news is saying.A lot of it coming from Newcastle journalists and journalists in general now starting to feed out this information that Newcastle have turned down a new formal offer from Arsenal for Bruno Gimaraes as direct talks continue between the clubs.Negotiations remain advanced despite denials with add -ons under discussion.

That's according to Alex Crook from TalkSport and there's a whole host of other journalists, most of them Newcastle journalists saying, you know, almost like they're throwing this whole thing into doubt.From what I'm being told, it's still happening.He was supposed to do a medical today.I've heard that what he's actually gone to do today is say goodbye to his Newcastle teammates.We already see him send a big message out to Eddie Howe.He didn't say he was going to Arsenal in that message, but he's basically saying goodbye to Eddie Howe and saying, you know, not goodbye that he was leaving, but goodbye to Eddie Howe because Eddie Howe left and he was showing his appreciation and the fact that he made him captain, et cetera, et cetera.

And he sent that message out.But he is planning to join Arsenal.And I've been told that the medical is actually going to take place tomorrow after he said his goodbyes to his Newcastle fans.today, and the deal is going to get done.So a lot of people are saying that a bid has been rejected.None of them have been saying what the bid is.

None of them have been saying, you know, what the improved bid is or whatever.They're just saying a bid's been rejected.I still think this deal is going to go through.I still think this deal is going to happen.And if it does happen, it's going to be a fantastic signing.Bruno Guimaraes, is absolute quality and will add to our midfield brilliantly.

The thing is about a deal like this is you are basically signing a club's best player, you're signing a club's captain, you're signing a club's player that is the most loved player at that club.That is not easy to do.The club itself that are selling the player also has to try and do it in a certain way.to, you know, they don't want to make it look like they were just an easy pushover and Arsenal just came waltzing in and just took away Bruno Guimaraes for a low fee and they made no effort to keep him.Even if they know he's going, they've got to make it look towards their fans that, listen, at least we made a serious effort, which they have done, but at least we made a serious effort to keep him.But ultimately, he wants to go to Arsenal.

We don't have Champions League football.and he's gone and guys we're gonna have to rebuild from here.I think we're seeing a lot of that going on here so I'm not getting over worried about this bid being rejected we fully you know if that is indeed the case we fully expect Arsenal to go in with um another offer we're being told it's going to be around about 80 million pounds that gets him away from Newcastle and then Bruno Guimaraes will become an Arsenal player.I have no doubt in my mind at the moment that this one's going to happen, so I don't think we have to panic.Also, I saw this one.This was really interesting.

This is from The Mag, which is a Newcastle platform.They tweeted out, and this was to Newcastle fans they're tweeting because they're a Newcastle platform.They said, don't want to worry you.But Bruno Guimaraes' banners have all come down.So what they're saying is basically Newcastle have been taking down all of the sort of banners that have Bruno Guimaraes in them, in and around the stadium.What is that telling you?

And that's from a Newcastle, you know, respected, you know, platform, the MAG.They're saying it's all coming down.You wouldn't take that down for your captain if you didn't think the player is going to be moving.So all the signs are still that Bruno Guimaraes is going to sign for Arsenal.But the headlines today are that a bid has been rejected for Bruno Guimaraes.But as I said, I've been told he's going to be doing it.

He was supposed to do the medical today, that the medical is going to happen tomorrow.So let's patiently wait and see what happens with that.On the other bit of news, nothing concrete yet.Just the usual, as I was sort of saying on Transfer Daily this morning, you read one account, He's staying at Madrid.I'm talking about Vinicius Junior, of course.You read another account, he's gone.

He's gone to Arsenal.

I even see, this has been funny, I even see people, right, tracking, not Vinicius Junior, this is new one, this is a new one now, but tracking Michael Jormark, who's the president of Roc Nation, which is his agent.He's coming in tohe's coming into London, right?So he posted on his Instagram, London, here I come.And he put, you know, that he's at London Heathrow Airport.And there's people tracking him, trying to track his flight.

Oh my God, listen, everybody just needs to calm down with his Vinicius Jr. stuff, right?It's going to come down to this.As I've been saying all along, will he sign a new deal with Real Madrid?And none of us know what's on his mind right now, apart from we do know that if he doesn't, Arsenal are waiting in the wings.What we do know is that he's agreed that he will come to Arsenal, agreed terms, if he can't get that deal done.That's all we know at this time.

I don't think anybody knows exactly what he's going to do.I don't think anyone knows exactly what Real Madrid's going to do.And that's why we're getting all these rumors back and forth, back and forth.But the truth about it is, until he has that meeting with Real Madrid, sits down with the president, and Roc Nation, these agents, and they thrash it out.I don't think anybody right now knows 100 % what's going to happen.So when you see these things, oh, he's definitely staying.

And you see another thing, no, he's on his way to Arsenal.I think, listen, let's wait.I do think it's going to become clearer this week.And we'll find out a lot more about Vinicius Junior.So it's a case of two Brazilians right now this week.Where are they going to end up?

But it's looking like Bruno Guimaraes is still going to end up at Arsenal despite these rumours going around today that a bid has been rejected by Newcastle to sign him.On the Vinicius Junior one, it's still up in the air, it's still 50 -50.Let's wait and see what happens.Thanks for watching and like I said, check out BuyMeSoda .com if you want to donate to those great creators over here in Kenya.
