Fabrizio Romano drops blockbuster weekend update confirming Man Utd have held ‘meeting’ with agent of rival PL star


Manchester United chiefs have met with the agent of Bruno Guimaraes to discuss a potential summer switch.


It comes after the Reds have been linked with the Newcastle United skipper on numerous occasions in recent weeks, as they continue their search for a suitable Casemiro successor.

United and Bruno Guimaraes: The state of play​



Weighing in on reports that United had ignited their pursuit of Guimaraes, Romano said: “A meeting took place in recent weeks between the agents of Bruno Guimaraes and Man United, it’s true.


“Manchester United maintain a very good relationship with the agency… [but] there is still a long way to go.”




The midfielder is currently out of action with a hamstring injury that he sustained during Newcastle’s clash with Tottenham Hotspur back in February, meaning he was unable to have an impact in the side’s 8-3 thumping at the hands of Barcelona and late derby defeat at home to Sunderland yesterday.


Guimaraes’ uncertain future on Tyneside has stemmed from the club’s turbulent form across 2025/2026, with the Magpies highly unlikely to be playing any form of European football next season unless they get their act together in the final seven matches.

Given the Brazilian international is now 28 and therefore would have perhaps one more major transfer on offer to him before he passes his peak, this year might be the time he decides to jump ship.

Doing so to Old Trafford would be absolutely unthinkable for the St. James’ Park faithful, but it’s seemingly something he’s considering, having green-lit his agents meeting with United in the first place.


As Guimaraes’ contract is due to run until 2028, Newcastle have already tried their luck with getting their talisman to sign fresh terms, though their attempts have been to no avail as of yet.
