Bruno Guimaraes’ agent has expressed his reaction to the midfielder’s fresh five-year contract with Newcastle United. Guimaraes, who joined the club from Lyon in January 2022 for a £40 million deal, has had a significant impact on Newcastle’s fortunes. Originally contracted until June 2026, his stay has now been extended until June 2028.

Since Guimaraes’ arrival at Newcastle, the team has undergone a remarkable transformation, shifting from a relegation-threatened side to one that competes in the Champions League. The announcement of Guimaraes’ contract extension came amid notable victories, including a 4-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League and a 2-2 Premier League draw against West Ham United.

In response to the announcement, Guimaraes’ agent, Alexis Malavolta, expressed his gratitude to those involved in the deal on social media. He tweeted, “The remarkable journey of Bruno Guimarães at Newcastle continues!” and shared a picture featuring himself, Guimaraes, Guimaraes’ father, Dick, sports lawyer Dr. Cristiano Caus, and agent Nojan Bedroud.

 

Additionally, Guimaraes’ agent acknowledged his partners Giuliano Bertolucci and Kia Joorabchian for their contributions.

Guimaraes himself expressed his pride in the team’s achievements, stating, “I remember in my first interview, I said I wanted to play for this club in the Champions League, and now it’s happening. We are performing exceptionally well, and I am immensely proud of my teammates, the team, the staff, the owners, and the fans.”
