Newcastle United have reportedly rejected ’s opening bid of around £80 million for midfielder Sandro Tonali, forcing Spurs to rethink their summer rebuild under Roberto De Zerbi. The 26-year-old Italy international, signed from AC Milan in 2023, remains under contract until 2029 with a club option for an additional year, giving Newcastle little incentive to sell. Spurs’ pursuit is part of De Zerbi’s midfield overhaul, but the Magpies’ refusal to engage underscores their financial stability and reluctance to part with a key asset.
