Career by season
Source: transfermarkt · fetched 2026-05-29
Bruno Guimarães is the bridge between Brazil’s possession base and its attacking front line. Ancelotti wants him receiving on the half-turn 30 yards from goal — close enough to slip a runner in behind Vinícius, far enough to recycle when the centre-forward isn’t onside.
Strengths
- Diagonal long passing
- Press resistance under pressure
