“Their dream was to win the tournament, but he’s focused now on Newcastle and that’s very important for all the players, to put all that behind them and take what positives they can.” NUFC
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe is hoping Bruno Guimaraes can respond to his World Cup heartbreak by maintaining his club form as the Magpies look to end their trophy drought.
He said: “He’s fine physically. He’s obviously disappointed to not reach the latter stages of the World Cup with his country. “For me, he has been outstanding for us. He had a small injury at the start of the season, but once he got his fitness back, he has been incredible.The Brazilian was one of five Newcastle players to travel to Qatar and while two of them – England duo Nick Pope and Kieran Trippier – played in Saturday’s friendly victory over Rayo Vallecano, compatriot Callum Wilson, Switzerland defender Fabian Schar and Guimaraes were not involved.
