Savage Bruno Guimaraes trolls Arsenal and their fans as they lose out on the transfer to Newcastle United over the weekend.
The Brazilian made time to poke fun at the Gunners after completing his January transfer move to the North East outfit.
Guimaraes had been heavily linked with Arsenal for majority of the window, only to see the Magpies swoop in and agree a £33million move, described to be a major coup for the club’s new Saudi Arabian owners, after already signing Kieran Trippier and Chris Wood.

While Arsenal’s technical director were constantly dithering over Lyon’s demands, Newcastle had no problems and have swopped in to sign the midfielder.
Guimaraes signed a four-and-a-half year deal on Sunday and took to social media shortly after with a video which referenced Arsenal’s failed pursuit.
The video, which has already been viewed more than a million times has a number of newspaper headlines alluding to Arsenal leading the race, before several images of his new club.
Looking good, @brunoog97! 🤩🤙

Speaking after signing Guimaraes, Eddie Howe said: “Bruno is a hugely exciting talent and has been one of our primary targets so I’m delighted to secure him. He strengthens the group immediately ready for the challenge ahead.
“He has been one of the standout performers in France and is a full international for Brazil so I have no doubt our supporters will really enjoy watching him.
“We look forward to welcoming him to the club on his return from international duty.”
After making 71 appearances for Lyon in two-and-a-half seasons, the Ligue 1 outfit sent a message of support to the player following his exit.
They tweeted: “Thank you for your class, your kindness and your professionalism Bruno Guimaraes.
“We wish you a very good continuation with Newcastle United and with the Brazilian national team.
“Olympique Lyonnais will not forget you!”
Newcastle’s newest signing is currently out in Brazil, where he will play Paraguay on Wednesday night, before arriving back in England in midweek.
Unlike the past few deadline days, this one promises to be an intriguing day for Newcastle, with manager Eddie Howe keen to bring in extra reinforcements in their battle against the drop.
A £12.5m deal for Brighton defender Dan Burn has reportedly been agreed ahead of his medical, while reports have also linked them with Manchester United duo Dean Henderson and Jesse Lingard. Big signings to avoid relegation from the Premier League.
The Gunners meanwhile have endured a hugely frustrating month, failing in their bid to sign Dusan Vlahovic from Fiorentina and Arthur Melo from Juventus.
