‘Aggressive’… Pep Guardiola now blown away by £40m star Michael Edwards wants at Liverpool
Pep Guardiola has now praised Liverpool target Bruno Guimaraes – amid reports Michael Edwards wants the Newcastle No.39 at Anfield.
The 53-y𝐆ear-old made the comments when speaking in his press conference on Friday.
So, what did Pep Guardiola say about Liverpool target Bruno Guimaraes? Let’s take a look…
Pep Guardiola heaps praise on Bruno Guimaraes
Well – according to – Liverpool are expected to make a move for the Br🎐azil international this summer with Edwards now i☂n place as CEO of Football at Anfield.
If the Reds do manage෴ to secure a deal for Guimaraes – who Newcastle signed from Lyon for in January 2022 – the move would seemingly come with Guardiola’s approval.
The Spaniard was by Manchester City’s official website as saying: “An exceptional holding midfielder. Aggressive, with the ball, he has the pause, on set-pieces he’s aggressive. A꧒ real, real complete holding midfielder since playing in Lyon.”
Guardiola was speakꦛing ahead of the FA Cup quarter-final clash between Manchester City and🔯 Newcastle on Saturday.
Liverpool would move up a level
If Liverpool manage to sign G꧋uimaraesꦛ this summer, it would be a real statement of intent.
Of course, Endo has become a firm fan favourite at Anfield following his move from VfB Stuttgart in August 2023 – Micah Richards has been stunned by the Japan international’s effectiveness.
However, the Liverpool🍰 No.3 was never signed as a long-term option at the age of 31.🐻
Thꩲat much was evident through the fact Klopp tried to sign Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo – who are 20 and 22 respecti📖vely – before moving for Endo.
Guimaraes would represent a major upgrade, and ev☂en if Edwards is📖n’t planning to directly replace the Japanese stalwart with the Brazilian, Liverpool need a bit more depth in the central midfield department regardless.
Be sure to keep an eye on this situation heading intoไ the summer, as Liverpool are ex✨pected to bid for the 26-year-old from Rio de Janeiro.
