Newcastle United have rejected Arsenal's first bid of £70m for captain Bruno Guimarães as the Premier League champions attempt to sign the Brazilian midfielder.

Newcastle have turned down Arsenal's opening offer for their captain, with the bid falling short of the Premier League club's valuation for the Brazilian midfielder.
