Liverpool are set to raid the transfer market this summer for a new midfielde🐬r, and Newcastle United’s Bruno Guimaraes is someone the Reds really admire.

The Brazilian has been at St. Jame෴s’ Park𓂃 now for just over a year.

He signed in the Ja𓆉nuary 2022 window , a few months after the Magpies were taken over.

And since his arrival▨ atꦦ the club, Guimaraes has become a firm favourite.

The Geordie faith🐎ful have been besotted with the midfielder, who has wonderful technical ability.

Guimaraes has also wholly embraced being at the club and clearly has a ꦅpassionꦿ for playing for Newcastle.

He is certainly a very popular figure and seems quite happy where he is, which will make it♈ very difficult for other clubs to prise him away this summer.

, Liverpool are ‘huge admirers’ of Guimaraes.

Their lack of quality options in midfi🦂eld hꦛas been well documented this season.

It is widely expected Liverpool will sign one or two midfielders in the next window. But 🐻the Echo state that they accept any🀅 deal for Guimaraes would be very difficult to facilitate.

In fact,𒉰 it is said that Liverpool feel it would be ‘almost a non-starter’.

In the same repoܫrt, it is ⛎suggested Conor Gallagher could be an option for Jurgen Klopp.

Yesterday, Guimaraes was named Player of the Match in Newcastle’s 2-0 win over Manchester United by Gary Neville. In t𓆏he first-half, he produced a brilliant nutmeg on Wout Weghorst. Neville gasped, ꦆdescribing it as ‘very cheeky’ and ‘definitely worth another look’.

Bruno Guimaraes would take Liverpool’s midfield to another level

What a player Guimaraes is. Newcastle are very lucky to have someone like him who just does everything really well and clearly really enjoys playing for them.

Arguabl♛y, he is the best player outside of the tra♛ditional Big Six.

There is no doubt he is a Champions League-quality player, and there will undoubꦏtedly be speculation about him i🐼n the coming transfer windows.

B♍ut Liverpool will massively have t🌌heir work cut out if they want to sign him. And it sounds like they may not even bother trying.

If Newcastle make ꦺthe Champions League ඣand Liverpool do not, then there is probably no chance of a transfer.
