Transfer: Why I decided to sign Bruno Guimaraes – Arteta

Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has given reasons why he signed Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United this summer.

Guimaraes was presented to the Emirates faithful before their pre-season friendly on Sunday afternoon.

The Brazilian has signed for the Premier League champions in a deal worth £75 million.

“I’m very happy to have Bruno with us,” Arteta said after the game.

“The energy he brings, and the hunger and desire to come here and make great history with the club.

“He has the ambition to take us to the next level.”
