Bruno Guimaraes - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Available from bench Guimaraes (knock) is on the bench for Sunday's Premier League clash against Chelsea after being assessed following the issue he picked up earlier in the week.

Impact Guimaraes has recovered sufficiently to make the squad, but Arsenal are taking a cautious approach by keeping him out of the starting XI. Myles Lewis-Skelly starts in midfield in his place, while Guimaraes provides manager Mikel Arteta with an experienced option off the bench if needed. Managing his workload could also prove important with Arsenal set to face Napoli in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Impact Guimaraes is dealing with a minor knock, but the early indications are encouraging, with the midfielder expected to return to training Saturday. If he comes through that session without any issues, he should be available against Chelsea, though Arsenal could be cautious with his workload, particularly with a Champions League clash against Napoli coming up Wednesday. Myles Lewis-Skelly could therefore continue in the starting midfield Sunday, with Guimaraes potentially being eased back into action from the bench.

Impact Guimaraes is progressing from the groin issue that kept him out against Coventry and could return to the squad Monday against Aston Villa.

Impact Guimaraes is projected as a key piece of the Gunners' midfield after transferring from Newcastle during the summer, but his inclusion in the starting lineup will have to wait until he's fully fit. Myles Lewis-Skelly, who provided cover in the double pivot Friday, would be the likeliest player to make way as soon as the Brazilian is ready for action, although there's still uncertainty over when that will happen despite Arteta's optimistic words so far.

Impact Guimaraes is not with his new club as they begin the 2026/27 season, as the midfielder is instead on the sidelines as he raises his fitness levels. This is despite his appearance in the Community Shield, playing up until halftime as they took home the win.

Late call for season opener Guimaraes (undisclosed) is a doubt for Friday's season opener against Coventry, according to coach Mikel Arteta, per Simon Collings. "Let's see. It's evolving well, but let's see."

Impact Guimaraes was substituted at halftime of Sunday's Community Shield win over Manchester City after making his first competitive start for Arsenal, with manager Mikel Arteta praising his energetic and combative presence in midfield. The performance continued the momentum from an excellent 2025/26 campaign with Newcastle, where he recorded nine goals and five assists before adding four assists across five World Cup appearances. His availability for the season opener will therefore be worth monitoring closely given his expected importance to Arsenal's midfield. Myles Lewis-Skelly and Declan Rice are expected to start in midfield if Guimaraes is unavailable, though the Brazilian is expected to be given every opportunity to prove his fitness before a final decision is made.
