Manchester City are prepared to step into the transfer window and make their team even stronger.
The Sky Blues won the Premier League title for the fourth time in a row under manager Pep Guardiola.
However, that will not stop them from making new signings and they are willing to splash the cash this summer.
Guardiola is a fan of Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes and he could make a move for the £100m-rated midfielder, according to journalist Dean Jones who provided this information to GiveMeSport.
Man City could spend £200m in the summer transfer window to make new signings and half of that budget, £100m, could be spent on one player and that is Bruno Guimaraes.
As per Shields Gazette, the Brazilian midfielder has a release clause of £100m in his contract at St. James’ Park.
The report mentions Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain as admirers of the midfielder and these three clubs could fight for the signature of the former Lyon midfielder.
With the ability to play both a holding role and a dynamic box-to-box role, Guimaraes is a complete midfielder for the modern game.
He guided Newcastle United to the Champions League by finishing in the top four of the Premier League in 2022-23.
He has quickly established himself as one of the best midfielders in the Premier League due to his ability to give his all whenever he puts on the Newcastle kit.
At just 26-years-old, he is undoubtedly still improving. Guimaraes can defend, hold possession, create opportunities, and finish chances.
He has the perfect profile that City needs to cover the void left by Gundogan in their midfield.

The Brazilian is physically capable of meeting Guardiola’s standards, and his technical skill and vision allow him to become an instant member of the squad.
According to information provided by journalist Ben Jacobs, the Premier League champions are the most likely team to sign the Newcastle midfielder.
Jacobs went as far as mentioning that contact has been made by Guardiola’s team with the midfielder.
