Lyon and Bruno Guimaraes are expecting an 'intense' last few days of the January transfer window, according to reports. Arsenal have now turned their attention to signing Guimaraes after struggling to get a deal for Juventus star Arthur over the line. But Newcastle are set to provide strong competition after submitting an offer of around £33.5million for the Brazilian on Tuesday.

Arsenal boss Arteta discussed his transfer plans following Sunday's disappointing goalless draw at home to bottom-of-the-table Burnley.
The Spaniard insisted he wanted to have made additions by now in the window and will continue to attempt to do so before Monday's deadline.
Arteta said: "It's what we planned, but the market is difficult, it's complicated.
"We knew that, but it's a lot to manage and we have to make the right decisions with players that we believe are going to really help us and try to bring in ones that can take us to the next level.
"We are certainly trying, but I don't know if we're going to be able to do it. Let's see, it's not only our intention, but a lot of facts that are needed to happen."
