Brace of assists in victory Guimaraes assisted twice to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 3-0 victory against Scotland.

Impact Guimaraes played a major role in Brazil's second and third goals, first delivering a pinpoint back-post cross that Vinicius Junior headed home in first-half stoppage time before controlling Casemiro's perfectly weighted through ball, surging forward and squaring it to an unmarked Matheus Cunha for an easy finish in the 60th minute. He had a hand in two of Brazil's three goals while once again dictating the tempo with another commanding all-around performance in midfield. Guimaraes was instrumental in Brazil's dominant 3-0 win that secured top spot in Group C and punched their ticket to the Round of 32.

Likely starter in midfield Guimaraes is expected to start in midfield for Brazil in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Impact Casemiro is pretty much locked in as one of the two starting midfielders in Carlo Ancelotti's system, and Guimaraes seems to have a leg up ahead of Lucas Paqueta for the other role. Guimaraes appeared in 29 Premier League contests (27 starts) for Newcastle and added seven starts in the Champions League, tallying nine goals and five assists. The central midfielder should thrive in a box-to-box role next to Casemiro.

Precautionary exit Sunday Guimaraes was substituted in the 66th minute of Sunday's season finale 2-0 defeat against Fulham as a precaution after complaining of calf cramps, but the exit was not the result o...

Impact Guimaraes had experienced fever on two days during the past week and felt some calf cramping during the match, prompting a mutual decision between the player and coach Eddie Howe to withdraw him given Newcastle had nothing left to play for in the campaign. The midfielder had been out between February and April with a thigh injury but returned to action and made six appearances following his recovery, and Brazil are relaxed about his condition ahead of the World Cup with the CBF in constant communication with his club and entourage regarding his physical status. Guimaraes ends the season with the Magpies contributing nine goals, five assists, 55 chances created, 89 crosses and 69 tackles across 36 appearances (34 starts) in all competitions.

In the meantime, Jacob Ramsey is set to carry a larger load in the middle of the park for the Magpies until the Brazilian is back up to full speed.

Impact Guimaraes had already been sidelined since Feb. 10 with a hamstring injury, and the illness picked up during international has added another setback to what has been a frustrating spell on the sidelines. The Brazilian midfielder has been a massive miss for Newcastle given his nine goals and four assists across 31 appearances before going down, and the club will not rush him back before he is fully fit given the importance of having him available for the final stretch of the season. Joelinton and Jacob Ramsey have been holding down the midfield in his extended absence.

Training individually Guimaraes (hamstring) was shown doing individual drills with the ball in a video posted by the club Tuesday.

Impact Guimaraes is targeting a return to action in April after being inactive since Feb. 10 due to a muscular injury. As soon as he's back in full training, the midfielder should give the team a huge boost in both attacking and defensive aspects, considering that he had scored nine goals and four assists over 31 appearances in all competitions while averaging 1.9 tackles per game before getting hurt. He'll likely take a starting spot from either Joelinton or Jacob Ramsey, and he'll also challenge Kieran Trippier and Lewis Hall for corner kicks.
