Although the Brazilian midfielder’s current contract with Newcastle doesn’t expire until 2026, other clubs, including Liverpool, have shown interest in him.
According to Football Transfers, Paris Saint-Germain made an even higher offer for Bruno this summer, while Liverpool reportedly offered £100 million, including add-ons.
However, “Newcastle met both proposals with a firm no.”
Because co-owner Mehrdad Ghodoussi is “a huge fan” of the midfielder, Newcastle wants to hang onto one of their best players. Newcastle, though, anticipates receiving more offers in 2024.
According to a Football Transfers report, the Magpies may not be able to stop Bruno from departing because the issue of a release clause has been a major topic of discussion throughout player and club contract negotiations.
According to rumors, Bruno’s new release clause, provided fresh terms are agreed upon, would be in the range of £100-150 million, a hefty but doable sum for the richest clubs in the world.
Last month, Liverpool saw Brighton accept a proposal of £111 million for midfielder Moises Caicedo, but the player ultimately held out for a transfer to Chelsea.
