Chelsea target Sandro Tonali’s future at Newcastle United is back in the spotlight after his agent, Giuseppe Riso, hinted at a potential summer move
CHELSEA were heavily linked with alot of players over the course of the January window, as many felt that the Blues needed to add an enforcer like Tonali to the midfield, and the Italian was a player that could have reportedly left Newcastle in the window.
The summer window will once again give the Blues an opportunity to try and sign Tonali, and in a revealing interview with TuttoSport, Tonali’s agent, Giuseppe Riso, provided a candid update on the player’s mindset following the close of the winter window.
While Riso was quick to dismiss the January links of a move away from Newcastle, his comments regarding the summer were far more ambiguous: “Newcastle are having a hard time letting go of Sandro, and he wants to lead the club to the Champions League,” Riso explained.
“These transfer discussions will take place later. We’ll see how the season ends and then we’ll decide what to do. There’s no preference at the moment. It’s still early. What we’re saying today won’t apply tomorrow. Newcastle couldn’t let him go now, and there’s no point in moving, especially since Sandro is very attached to the club.
‘We’ll evaluate and decide what to do in the summer.”
IcFootballnews Says…
Tonali could have left Newcastle in the winter window, and it would have been a massive loss for the Toon to lose such a massive player, especially as they wants to get back into the Champions LEAGUE for next season.
But we really cant see the club making a move for Tonali, that £100 million asking price may out the board off
However – if the Toon are unable to get back into Europe, then the Italian could look for that move as he wants to be competing for the big trophies and playing against the best players, he will not do that if he stays at Newcastle and they are not progressing.
But if he does move, it will be interesting to see where he might end up.
