Howe insists Isak & Guimaraes will continue at Newcastle
Eddie Howe, Newcastle's manager, exudes confidence in the club's ability to retain their key players amidst transfer speculation. With Alexander Isak's exceptional performance attracting attention from top clubs like Arsenal, Tottenham, and Paris Saint-Germain's interest in Bruno Guimaraes, Howe remains undaunted.
He said: "I don't fear that. In some senses, that's what you want because it means your players are playing at a level that everyone appreciates and I want my players - all of them - to be playing above what they think they're capable of being. So no, I don't think fear is the right word. I want Alex to keep scoring goals, I want him to keep being in the headlines - I'm sure he wants the same thing - but we want to keep him long-term."
On Guimaraes, he added: "Let me tell you, players like Bruno, they are not around every corner. They are very rare. Bruno should be appreciated for everything he brings. My intention would be to keep Bruno at the club for as long as we possibly can. I can never make guarantees though. That would be absolutely foolish of me. We have been in football long enough to know you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow."

Barcelona pull out of Baena race
Barcelona's interest in Villarreal's Alex Baena has been hindered by financial constraints, as reported by Diario Sport. Despite being keen admirers of the midfielder, the Catalan club is unlikely to secure his services this summer.
The 22-year-old Baena possesses a release clause set at approximately €60 million, which exceeds Barcelona's financial capabilities given their current situation.
Additionally, Barcelona's transfer priorities for the upcoming window focus on acquiring a holding midfielder and a left winger, with Baena's position lower on their list of needs. While Baena can operate effectively from the left flank, his primary position is in midfield. Notably, he leads LaLiga in assists this season, underlining his importance and quality on the pitch.
