Premier League champions Arsenal have completed the signing of Newcastle captain Bruno Guimaraes for a reported fee of £75 million ($101.2 million), the two clubs announced Saturday.
The Brazil international, who spent four-and-a-half seasons with Newcastle, has signed a “long-term contract” with the Gunners, who ended a 22-year wait for a top-flight English league title last season.
The 28-year-old Guimaraes is Arsenal’s most high-profile signing of the transfer window so far, joining fellow new arrivals Illan Meslier and Christos Tzolis at the Emirates Stadium.
