Bruno Guimarães Draws Mega Saudi Interest Amid €120M Release Clause

Bruno Guimarães has emerged as a top transfer target for Saudi Pro League champions Al Ittihad, who are prepared to trigger his €120 million release clause. Representatives from the club recently held discussions with the Brazilian midfielder's agent, identifying him as a key figure for their next campaign. His contract with Newcastle United runs until 2028, but interest from Saudi Arabia is intensifying, with Al Ittihad leading the chase.
While initial talks did not touch on salary specifics, Guimarães' camp is reportedly setting expectations high, seeking an annual figure between €40 million and €50 million. Despite Al Ittihad's strong interest, Al Hilal has also entered the race, though they view him as a secondary option behind Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes. The competition for the Newcastle star signals a growing ambition among Saudi clubs to attract top-tier international talent.
Since his move from Lyon in January 2022, Guimarães has been instrumental for Newcastle. This season alone, he has contributed five goals and nine assists in 53 appearances across club and country. His standout performances also played a part in helping Newcastle claim their first domestic trophy in 70 years with a Carabao Cup win over Liverpool, underlining his importance and value on the pitch.a
