Bad news for Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali from Chris Waddle

Chris Waddle says the shift to Arsenal could be challenging for Bruno Guimaraes, after previously doubting whether any club would pay £50m for him. Waddle points out Arsenal ultimately paid £75m to Newcastle, and Guimaraes will turn 29 in less than two months. He argues Guimaraes may struggle to keep a regular starting spot because Arsenal’s midfield is of a very high level. Waddle says the player’s role alongside Declan Rice and in a system with Martin Odegaard will require exceptional performances to secure a permanent place. He also delivered “bad news” about Sandro Tonali at Tottenham, saying fans will be pleased with Newcastle’s return on sale.
