BRUNO GUIMARAES has sparked intense PSG transfer speculation after taking a trip to Disneyland Paris.
This comes as the Brazilian midfielder is reportedly sizing up a Newcastle exit following the club’s dismal winter form.
Guimaraes joined up with his loved ones in the French capital following Newcastle’s last-gasp 3-2 defeat to Manchester City on Sunday.
The midfielder posed with his family and pregnant wife Ana in front of the iconic Disney castle.
He also visited the Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower in minus two degrees as the Magpies are free from Premier League duty this weekend.
But his choice of destination may get Newcastle fans nervous, as Guimaraes is reportedly being targeted by Paris Saint-Germain.

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has put the Geordie faithful’s minds at ease, after reporting the club are unwilling to sell him before the month is out.
Romano tweeted: “Bruno Guimaraes is in Paris today… but just for personal trip. Brazilian midfielder enjoying free day with his friends and family.
“There is no correlation with PSG interest. No January move expected as he’s now untouchable for Newcastle.”
But the Toon might be left with little bargaining power.

Spanish news outlet Sport reported Guimaraes wants to leave Newcastle ‘as soon as possible’.
This follows claims that he will walk away after this season and dreams of joining La Liga giants Barcelona.
Yet Barca are unlikely be able to afford to pay his £100m release clause.
This comes as Newcastle CEO Darren Eales said the Magpies must sell some star players to navigate Financial Fair Play Rules.
Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly interested and are more financially equipped to obtain the midfielder.
Fresh claims from Brazil have stated Luis Enrique has requested the Ligue 1 winners sign the Premier League star.
The 26-year-old signed a new contract in October to make him the club’s highest-paid player, committing his future until 2028, but there is every chance he will not see that out.
