Bruno Guimaraes has released a brilliant video to announce his big money move to Newcastle United - and it's a brutal watch for Arsenal fans!

As you can see below, several snippets of paper talk pop up, claiming the Gunners are facing competition for his signature, but they are then followed by him outside St James' Park in a Newcastle United shirt!
