Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly moved close to securing the signature of Italy’s midfield dynamo, Marco Tonali, after submitting a new bid that exceeds €100 million.
The club’s latest offer comes as the Blues await a final response from Newcastle United, who are weighing the terms.
Tottenham’s summer transfer window has seen the club bolster its midfield, signing Portuguese midfielder Mateus Fernandes for a guaranteed fee of £85 million, a deal that outmatched rival offers.
Additional acquisitions include former Liverpool defender Andy Robertson, Bournemouth’s Marco Senesi, and Jan Paul van Hecke, who joined from Brighton for £52 million.
These moves reflect the club’s ambition to strengthen the squad for the upcoming Premier League campaign.
Tonali, a product of Sporting CP’s youth system, made 36 Premier League appearances for West Ham last season, scoring three goals, and has earned a cap for the Italian national team.
Spurs’ pursuit of the midfielder follows a broader strategy of targeting high‑profile players to elevate the team’s competitive edge.
The potential addition of Tonali alongside Fernandes would signal a significant statement of intent from the club’s management.
Negotiations are currently underway, with Tottenham poised to finalize the deal once Newcastle’s decision is confirmed.
The club’s ongoing transfer activity underscores a commitment to building a squad capable of challenging for top honours in the coming season.
