Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly in advanced talks to sign 26-year-old Italian international Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United this summer.
The Italian midfielder has been a standout performer for the Magpies, and his acquisition could prove to be a shrewd move for Tottenham.
According to reports, Tonali has received multiple lucrative offers from top clubs, but he has given his word to Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi and is keen to join the North London club.
The player is said to be doing everything in his power to convince Newcastle to accept the offer from Tottenham, with a deal yet to be finalised.
Tonali's arrival at Tottenham could be a game-changer for the club, providing a much-needed defensive midfielder to control the tempo of the game and recycle possession.
The Italian international has outgrown Newcastle and is eager to join a team with more quality where he can fight for trophies.
Tottenham have quality players at their disposal and have brought in a top manager in De Zerbi, with the potential to bounce back strongly next year and challenge for trophies.
With a few intelligent additions, there is no reason why Tottenham cannot push for Champions League qualification once again.
Newcastle will look to recoup as much as possible from the departure of Tonali, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops in the coming weeks.
