Newcastle's Top Four Record Player Sales All Completed in Two Summers, Totaling Over €275 Million This Season

On August 5 Beijing time, well-known reporter Romano used his trademark “HERE WE GO” announcement to report that Arsenal had signed Newcastle's 28-year-old Brazilian midfielder Bruno Guimaraes for a transfer fee of £75 million.

The £75 million (€87.48 million) transfer fee would also become the third-highest sale of a player in Newcastle's history, behind only Isak last season and Tonali this season. All of the top four positions on the list were completed within the last two summers.

Newcastle's current record player sales ranking:

1 Isak (2025-26 season Liverpool) €145 million

2 Tonali (2026-27 season Tottenham) €108 million

*Not yet officially announced Guimaraes (2026-27 season Arsenal) €87.48 million

3 Gordon (2026-27 season Barcelona) €80 million

4 Elliot Anderson (2024-25 season Nottingham Forest) €41.2 million

5 Andy Carroll (2010-11 season Liverpool) €41 million

It is worth noting that Guimaraes' departure also means Newcastle have completely entered a squad rebuild. This summer alone, they have sold three key first-team players for a combined transfer fee of more than €275 million:

Tonali (2026-27 season Tottenham) €108 million
