De Zerbi is trying to get Tonali: wants him at Tottenham, battle with two major Premier League clubs


It would be a sensational signing for Tottenham Hotspur, while rumors are stirring the Premier League: Spurs are in the race to sign Sandro Tonali. There had been talk for months about the risk that Newcastle United - the player's owner - could end the season without Champions League qualification or even a place in another European competition. This put the Italian midfielder, born in 2000, on Roberto De Zerbi's radar. According to Fabrizio Romano, a well-known transfer news expert, De Zerbi is keen to add Tonali as the new star of the Tottenham midfield. This would be the ideal step for Spurs to give a quality boost. The London club is determined to battle superpowers such as Manchester City and Arsenal in the battle for the former AC Milan player. An interesting link between the coach and the player is that both are fans of Brescia, as well as former players of the club. It is hoped that this connection can foster a "superior" partnership and exceed the plans of the new English champions and the club without Guardiola.
