Arsenal hold talks with Bruno Guimaraes over shock transfer as Newcastle brace for formal offer

Bruno Guimaraes - 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.

Yoane Wissa - Isolated in attack Wissa registered one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Colombia.

Impact Wissa registered one shot and one chance created across his 90 minutes in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Colombia, operating as the central striker in DR Congo's attack against a Colombian backline that largely kept him quiet throughout a match where his side generated very few clear-cut opportunities despite a disciplined and compact defensive display for 75 minutes. The forward won four duels as his side's primary outlet in attack, but was starved of service by a Colombia midfield that controlled the tempo and denied DR Congo any meaningful possession in the final third. His ability to hold the ball up and create space for teammates gives DR Congo an important attacking reference point heading into the must-win finale against Uzbekistan, where he will need far more support from midfield if his side are to produce the result needed to stay alive in Group K.

Anthony Elanga - Nets in loss Elanga scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 5-1 defeat against Netherlands.

Impact Elanga scored once off the bench during Saturday's win. The goal is a nice boon, but it was a one-sided defeat that showed few signs of life for Sweden. The winger did well in his limited chances off the bench, but he was limited with a formation that doesn't encourage wing play. Elanga could get a larger role in the group stage finale after this goal.

Bruno Guimaraes - Makes five tackles in win Bruno Guimaraes generated five tackles (three won), one clearance and one interception in Friday's 3-0 win versus Haiti.

Impact Guimaraes made the second-most tackles for Brazil during their easy win against Haiti, the first in the World Cup. The Newcastle midfielder had a quiet outing stat-wise other than that, but also won the second-most duels (eight) for his side. He has seven tackles after two games and will remain as an important piece of their midfield against Scotland on Jun 24.

Anthony Gordon - Quiet start to World Cup Gordon recorded two shots (one on target) in Wednesday's 4-2 win over Croatia.

Impact Gordon was not at his very best Wednesday despite England's win, as the winger only recorded two shots in his 72 minutes of work, not seeing a single cross or chance created. This will be a bit of a disappointment after his name being in the. news so much following his signing with Barcelona, as he would've liked to pick up a goal contribution on one of the four goals. With England having so much attacking depth, he will need to be wary of losing his spot in the starting XI, especially after Marcus Rashford scored after coming on as a substitute, earning a superb 18-minute shift.

Yoane Wissa - Nets equalizer Wissa scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Portugal.

Impact Wissa scored the equalizer during Wednesday's draw, a heroic goal that split the points in the World Cup opener. Wissa could have had another goal, but was unable to put his shot on target. He's going to be a key part of the attack through the rest of the World Cup, with most of Congo's attacking moves flowing through him.

Impact Livramento won't take part in the major international competition, but his expected timeline suggests he'll be back for club action in the 2026/27 season.

His place in the Three Lions' roster was taken by Trevoh Chalobah after the injury was confirmed.

Trevor Chalobah has been called up to fill the vacancy and is travelling to join the squad in the United States ahead of England's Group C campaign.

Anthony Elanga - Subs in late versus Tunisia Elanga (knee) was inserted very late in Sunday's 5-1 victory over Tunisia, without recording any stat.

Impact Elanga was fit following an injury scare in early June, but he was managed carefully in the opener, only playing in the final stages of the game, which was well out of hand at that point. He could compete with Benjamin Nygren and Lucas Bergvall once he's in better shape, while Yasin Ayari started the tournament with a brace. Elanga tallied two goals and one assist in 42 games (20 starts) with Newcastle United in 2025/2026.

Bruno Guimaraes - Assists against Morocco Bruno Guimaraes assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Morocco.

Impact Guimaraes created Vinicius Junior's equalizer in the 32nd minute to help Brazil avoid what would be their first World Cup debut loss since 1934. The midfielder sent in the second-most crosses for his side and took one of their six corner kicks during the draw. That was his first WC start as he came off the bench twice in Qatar 2022, with no goals or assists.

Impact Elanga picked up a knee contusion at the start of the Swedish training camp, but it appears his recovery has gone as expected. He's back fit and available for the opening clash with Tunisia, where he should be an option in the attack. Elanga will likely be a bench option to start, but he should get his chances off the bench in attacking midfield and as a wide option if needed.
