Arsenal on the Brink of a Double Coup: Bruno Guimaraes Agrees Personal Terms, Morgan Rogers in Sight

Arsenal are pushing to pull off a spectacular double transfer that could reshape the Premier League landscape, with Bruno Guimaraes reportedly agreeing personal terms and Morgan Rogers also said to have given the green light to a move. According to transfer insider Nicolo Schira, the Brazil international has reached an agreement on a contract that would keep him at the Emirates until 2031. Arsenal are now “pushing” to secure the 28-year-old, who is believed to have submitted a transfer request at Newcastle in a bid to force through the move. Newcastle, however, are playing hardball. The Magpies are holding out for a fee in the region of £100 million (€115m), the same sum they paid for Sandro Tonali. Club sources, including The media’s Luke Edwards, insist that no formal bid has been lodged and that all talk of offers is “agent nonsense.” Edwards stressed that Bruno would have to agitate publicly to leave, and that now appears to have happened. On the other flank, Arsenal are also closing in on Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers. sources exclusively revealed earlier this week that the England Under-21 star has agreed personal terms with the North London side, putting Mikel Arteta in a commanding position to sign both targets. Yet the financial hurdles remain immense. Villa have slapped a British-record asking price of £130 million (€150m) on Rogers, while Newcastle refuse to budge from their £100m valuation for Bruno. Arsenal are believed to be willing to offer around £72.5m (€85m) for the Villa attacker and have previously tabled a rejected £44.5m (€52m) bid for the Brazilian. Despite the vast gap in valuations, the fact that both players are said to have agreed personal terms with Arsenal gives the Gunners significant leverage. If Arteta’s side can bridge the fee chasm, they would land two of the most sought-after players in English football and deliver a devastating blow to their title rivals.
