I’m your warrior, Guimaraes sends message to Arsenal fans, targets trophies

Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has signed a long-term contract with Arsenal, expressing his excitement about joining one of Europe's strongest midfield units and his goal of winning trophies at the club. The Brazilian international, 28 years old, revealed that his former Newcastle teammate Declan Rice had messaged him to welcome him to Arsenal, saying, "Come here and please no more fights, now we're friends!"

Guimaraes praised Arsenal's possession-based and defensive style of play, stating that it aligns with his own playing approach. He is prepared to bring his passing, running, and defensive abilities to the team, aiming to contribute goals as well. Guimaraes emphasized his desire to create a lasting legacy at Arsenal and become one of the club's historic players, citing former midfielder Gilberto Silva as his role model.

The midfielder will wear the number 39 jersey, a number with personal significance as his father recommended it when he joined Athletico Paranaense. Guimaraes promised his supporters that he will give his best for the club and hopes to create many good memories with them.
