Arsenal is considering signing Sandro Tonali, a 25-year-old from Newcastle United, and is prepared to make a large financial offer soon. It has been reported that a first bid for the Italian midfielder was rejected, with Newcastle maintaining their position and appearing unreceptive to a transfer. This stance is consistent with comments from manager Eddie Howe. On Sunday, he said that he did not anticipate any major developments in the transfer market and suggested that Jamaal Lascelles is the only player who could potentially leave before the deadline.
Tonali joined Newcastle on a five-year contract in July 2023 but was suspended for ten months in October for breaching betting regulations. In the current Premier League season, he has made 24 appearances and provided one assist. Tonali has 30 caps and 3 goals for Italy. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €75.00m. Several other top European clubs, including Juventus, Liverpool, and Real Madrid, have also been linked with the midfielder.
