Spurs' Sandro Tonali transfer hijack fears after Newcastle United reject bid

Newcastle want a straight cash deal and will keep Tonali unless Spurs raise their offer, with Manchester City and Arsenal also watching.

  • Newcastle United rejected an £80 million bid from Tottenham Hotspur for Sandro Tonali, though the Italy international remains open to a move away from the club.
  • UEFA regulations treat player swaps as linked transactions, complicating potential deals; Newcastle prefers a single large cash offer to maintain compliance with Financial Sustainability Regulations.
  • Amid transfer noise, Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall has reportedly asked to leave, while Joe Willock is linked with a return to Arsenal after coming through the academy there.
  • The Magpies have reportedly made an initial move for Atta, who is also attracting interest from Everton and Fulham, while continuing to monitor free agent defender Oscar Mingueza.
  • Newcastle remain under UEFA scrutiny following concerns over potential Financial Sustainability Regulations breaches, as UEFA's assessment period mandates close monitoring of spending despite missing European qualification.
