Newcastle have banked more than £240m from player sales this summer, yet no deal cut deeper than letting Bruno Guimarães go for £75m. The club wanted to keep him, and made that clear. The 28-year-old midfielder wanted the Emirates, and asked for the move himself. Mikel Arteta's side saw a first approach fail, with the Magpies holding firm on their position, but the agreement that followed handed the Londoners a genuine leader. "I'm your warrior, I'll never give up," the Brazilian promised his new supporters. The transfer is done. While Newcastle rewrite their financial records, Arsenal are gathering the strength they believe can decide the title race.
