Tottenham hold talks with Sandro Tonali's camp in transfer pursuit
Tottenham have held positive talks with Sandro Tonali's representatives about a summer move, with Roberto De Zerbi driving the pursuit of the 26-year-old Newcastle midfielder. Spurs have not yet contacted Newcastle or submitted a bid, and the transfer fee remains the primary stumbling block with Manchester City and Arsenal also expected to compete near a £100 million valuation. If completed, the signing would be a statement acquisition that gives De Zerbi a ball-progressing midfielder who could replace or upgrade Joao Palhinha and substantially alter Tottenham's midfield profile.
🚨 Tottenham Hotspur want Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United. Positive talks between #THFC & 26yo; no contact yet with #NUFC. Transfer fee bigger hurdle than player deal.

Isn't he a bit young to be retiring from top class football
Cue the annual “food chain… we’re so back” verbal diarrhoea from the Spuds fan boys, only to be on their 2nd manager of the season come Xmas Just imagine where they’d be without bent financial rules designed to keep them relevant
I see two chances of this happening. 1. Slim 2. None
Then Tonali is an idiot.
