The latest Newcastle transfer news about Bruno Guimaraes is that there is no secret release clause for Barcelona in his contract. He has no preference.

A few days back, the Daily Mail published an article that informed all Newcastle fans about a secret release clause in the newly signed contract of Bruno Guimaraes. Barcelona seemed to be the preferred option for Bruno if he ever wanted to leave the Magpies according to Daily Mail’s Newcastle transfer news. And, that is why he had a secret release clause, especially for Barcelona. The release clause for the Cules was fairly low than the other clubs that wanted Bruno.

Bruno Guimaraes Barcelona secret release clause truth revealed

Contradicting the reports in the Daily Mail, Jacque Talbot of Football Transfer published an article telling fans that there is no release clause for Barcelona in the 5-year contract that Bruno Guimaraes has signed. Talbot writes;

"“Bruno Guimaraes is not believed to have any condition in his Newcastle contract allowing any specific club a discount on his £100 million release clause despite contrasting claims from Barcelona sources.”"

Some sources from Spain have reported that the release clause for Barcelona in the Bruno Guimaraes’ contract could be around £70m. However, these rumours are far from the truth if one believes in the report from Jacque Talbot of Football Transfer.

Newcastle transfer news: Liverpool and PSG will bid for Bruno Guimaraes

Jacque Talbot of Football Transfer believes that although Bruno has signed a new deal with Newcastle United that will tie him down to the club till 2028, he will still attract interest from both European and English clubs in the summer.

Last summer, PSG and Liverpool submitted bids for Bruno. However, Newcastle blatantly turned down those bids. However, according to Talbot;

"“Newcastle are anticipating bids in 2024, though their stance at the moment is that they are not prepared to let the player leave for anything less than the release clause, while the player himself is settled and has no immediate desire to leave.”"
