Poor Bruno Guimaraes has had to once again answer questions on his future as TNT Sport asked the Newcastle United midfielder about the rumours linking him with a move away.

There's nothing more fashionable in the world of football than Anthony Gordon's patchwork trousers, except for maybe suggesting that Newcastle will have to sell Bruno Guimaraes to comply with Financial Fair Play.

Newcastle are reportedly near their limit in terms of FFP, but they certainly aren't "need to sell our prize asset for £100m" near the limit of FFP, but that doesn't stop journalists from repeating it ad nauseam.

Now TNT Sports in Brazil (via Fabrizio Romano) have asked the player himself whether he thinks he'll be sold as part of a bid to fend off the FFP overlords at Newcastle.

Bruno Guimaraes has once again stated he his happy where he is

Bruno has stated many, many times that he is happy at Newcastle, there's never been so much as a hint that he wants to leave, and despite reiterating that again here, some fans are choosing to focus on his words rather than his message.

“My future? I’m under contract at Newcastle, I’m very happy. I don’t know what’s gonna happen with Financial Fair Play, but I can say I’m very happy”.

“It’s nice to see my name linked with big clubs, it means I’m doing my job well… but I’m not worried — I’m happy at Newcastle. We will see what happens”

"We will see" has some fans on edge

With him saying "we will see what happens" some fans are reading it as him leaving the door open for a move, and saying "big clubs" has also ruffled some feathers.

At the end of the day, the "we will see" is more likely him admitting that not everything is under his control and if the club needs to sell him, they will. The overriding message here though, is clearly that he is happy at Newcastle.

The fact he refers to being linked with "big clubs" is nothing to get upset about either. It's not like he said "bigger clubs", then we could maybe take issue with it, but even then, it's down to interpretation and, more importantly, translation as the answer was given in Portuguese.

So we can stop panicking, it was just an honest answer to a crap question and nothing to worry about. Focus on the positive: Bruno. Is. Happy.
