Eddie Howe reacts to Bruno Guimaraes saying farewell to Newcastle supporters amidst Arsenal interest.

There has been a lot of speculation about Bruno Guimaraes potentially leaving Newcastle United this summer. After their win against Brentford, there were rumors that he may have been saying goodbye to the fans. However, manager Eddie Howe has dismissed these suggestions.

During the game, Guimaraes had an outstanding performance, assisting in two goals and scoring one himself. At the end of the match, he could be seen waving and gesturing to the Newcastle supporters, which may have caused some emotional reactions. It's worth noting that the Brazilian has a release clause of £100million, which can be activated next month. Both Arsenal and Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing him.

When asked about Guimaraes' gesture, Howe reassured fans that it was not a goodbye wave. He believes that the midfielder is a crucial part of the team and is hopeful that he will stay with Newcastle next season. Howe also praised Guimaraes for his inspirational play and expressed his desire to keep him on the team.

Guimaraes' performance against Brentford was exceptional, and he has been a key player throughout the season. He, along with striker Alexander Isak, has been linked with a potential transfer. Howe acknowledged their abilities, stating that they have made a difference in numerous games. However, he emphasized the importance of the team and how they create a platform for players like Guimaraes and Isak to shine.

After the game, Guimaraes took to Instagram to thank the fans for their support and expressed his hopes of qualifying for Europe next season. He also took a subtle shot at talkSPORT pundits Danny Murphy and Simon Jordan, who had previously criticized his athleticism. Guimaraes uploaded a screenshot of a Sky Sports graphic showing that he had covered the most distance of any player in the Premier League this season. He captioned it with a sarcastic remark, proving his critics wrong.

It's clear that Guimaraes has a strong bond with the Newcastle fans and is grateful for their support. He has been a standout player for the team and has proven his abilities on the field. As the season comes to an end, many are curious about his future with the team, but for now, Guimaraes remains a valuable player for Newcastle.
