Arsenal have stepped up talks with Newcastle in a bid to sign Brazil midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, according to reports on Tuesday.

The Premier League champions reportedly had a recent £70 million ($93 million) offer rejected for Guimaraes, but are set to return with an improved offer.

Arsenal are keen on Newcastle captain Guimaraes after opting not to match Chelsea's British record £117 million swoop for England forward Morgan Rogers.
