Sandro Tonali, Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United, Roberto De Zerbi
16 June 2026
Tottenham have entered the race for Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali as Roberto De Zerbi pushes for a major rebuild. Spurs are reportedly ready to rival Arsenal and Manchester City, while Manchester United are no longer actively pursuing him.
De Zerbi sees Tonali as a statement midfield signing after Tottenham’s difficult season, but Newcastle’s valuation remains a major barrier. The player has also attracted interest because Newcastle missed European qualification, increasing speculation around high-value exits.
