Hide Ad@iamheavyhands: That is a massive signing. If ever there was a signal of intent from the owners, it’s that. More, I want more #NUFC
@nufcsanjay: Can't stop looking at this, just can't believe Bruno Guimarães, the guy who's been ripping it up week in week out in Ligue 1, is actually a #NUFC player. Literally could start for most other teams in Europe.
@jonnymattison1: Keep them coming @NUFC can’t wait to see the quality he adds to our midfield feels like lift off for this club now slowly but surely we will get there #nufc
@TMarksta: Great signing for the club hopefully a couple more can be done by end of transfer window #NUFC #NUFCTransfers
