Tonali Transfer Race Intensifies as Man United Eye Summer Bid and Newcastle Weigh Pellegrini Move

Newcastle are expected to seek a premium fee of more than £80m while the midfielder’s agent says his future will only be revisited after the season.

Overview

  • Manchester United have placed Sandro Tonali high on their shortlist and are reported to be preparing a summer move as they plan a midfield overhaul.
  • Arsenal remain keen, Manchester City are monitoring, and Liverpool have been linked, though all interest is described in reports rather than confirmed by the clubs.
  • Juventus’ hopes of a Serie A return are considered unlikely due to the combined hurdles of Newcastle’s valuation and Tonali’s wage package, according to The Athletic.
  • Multiple reports claim Newcastle are exploring replacements, with Roma’s Lorenzo Pellegrini said to have approved a free‑transfer switch and Lyon’s Tyler Morton also linked.
  • Tonali is contracted at St James’ Park until 2030 and previously served a 10‑month gambling ban, factors clubs are weighing as his camp signals a summer decision window.
