Alan Shearer has already given two reasons why Sandro Tonali could join Spurs

Newcastle rejected Tottenham’s £80 million offer, with the Magpies said to want £100 million for the Italy midfielder.

  • Newcastle United rejected a bid from Tottenham Hotspur for Sandro Tonali earlier this week, with the club holding firm on their £100 million valuation for the 26-year-old midfielder.
  • Alan Shearer admitted he would be surprised if Tonali chooses Tottenham, citing the club's poor recent league finishes, though he acknowledged the appeal of London and working with manager Roberto De Zerbi.
  • Tonali is contracted at St. James' Park until 2030 with no buyout clause, placing Newcastle in a strong negotiating position and making extraction difficult for any suitor.
  • Late Saturday, reports indicated Tottenham Hotspur moved into pole position to sign 21-year-old Mateus Fernandes, though formal talks between the club and West Ham United have yet to begin.
  • Pundit Gary Neville suggests Manchester United consider signing Felix Nmecha over Fernandes, noting the West Ham midfielder's rising price tag as clubs scout across Europe this summer.
