JUST IN : Eddie Howe Battles Pundit Who claims one of Newcastle’s best player is not a ‘great athlete’

Bruno Guimaraes of Newcastle is not a “great athlete,” according to former Liverpool player Danny Murphy,

and he requires a partner in the middle of the field.

After passing down offers from numerous elite European teams to join the Magpies in January 2022,

the Brazilian midfielder has continuously been the team’s finest player.

However, despite vocally and in writing pledging his future to the team, there have been persistent rumors of a possible departure.

The latest of which conjectured that Pep Guardiola would like to sign him to Manchester City in order to bolster his midfield.

Murphy, a former Liverpool player, is regarded highly by most elite managers,

yet he has recognized what he believes to be a big shortcoming.”(He is a) great passer,

technically gifted, but he’s not a great athlete. He needs real athletes around him to shine,

” the 26-year-old said on talkSPORT. “That (not being a good athlete) is what will stop him from being one of the best because everything else in his game is superb.

” The Italian star was supposed to be sitting alongside the 26-year-old in the middle of the park this season,

but he was suspended following a betting investigation.

The allegation that he lacks athleticism may not sit well with many Newcastle supporters,

but playing with a more robust player allows him to concentrate on the more technical aspects of his game.
