Reports suggest that Newcastle United is targeting former Arsenal midfielder Dani Ceballos as a potential replacement for Bruno Guimaraes, with the Brazilian midfielder possibly departing to address Financial Fair Play concerns. Guimaraes, 26, has attracted interest from Manchester United, Arsenal, and Paris Saint-Germain, prompting Newcastle to plan for his potential departure.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Eddie Howe, Newcastle’s manager, has set his sights on Real Madrid’s Ceballos, 27, who has seen limited playing time this season, featuring mainly as a substitute. Ceballos previously spent a loan spell at Arsenal, where he made 77 appearances, scoring two goals and providing five assists, winning the FA Cup in his first year.
