Newcastle United have reportedly placed a valuation of £87m on midfielder Sandro Tonali as interest grows ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to Tuttosport, Real Madrid have now joined Manchester United and Arsenal in monitoring the Italy international’s situation. The report suggests that Newcastle United are prepared to hold firm on their valuation if clubs attempt to sign the midfielder.
Tonali joined Newcastle United from AC Milan in the summer of 2023 and has since become a regular presence in the team.
Sandro Tonali record since joining Newcastle United
The midfielder has made 101 appearances for Newcastle United across all competitions since his arrival at St James’ Park.
During that time, Tonali has scored 10 goals and provided nine assists.
The Italy international remains under contract with Newcastle United until the summer of 2028. Despite that long-term deal, reports suggest that he could consider leaving the club at the end of the season.
Real Madrid join Manchester United and Arsenal in Sandro Tonali interest
Manchester United and Arsenal have both been credited with interest in the midfielder for some time.
Tuttosport now claim that Real Madrid have also entered the race for Tonali’s signature ahead of the summer transfer window.
Newcastle United are expected to demand £87m if any club attempts to sign the midfielder.
Manchester United planning midfield changes ahead of summer window
Manchester United are expected to strengthen their midfield options during the summer transfer window.
Casemiro’s departure on a free transfer at the end of the season has already been confirmed.
Manuel Ugarte is also reportedly expected to leave the club, with interest from Serie A clubs in the Uruguay international.
As a result, Manchester United are expected to bring in two new central midfielders.
Arsenal also monitoring Sandro Tonali situation
Arsenal were linked with Tonali during the January transfer window and are believed to admire the Newcastle United midfielder.
Real Madrid’s involvement could complicate the situation for both Premier League clubs if the Spanish side decide to pursue a deal.
At this stage, it is believed to be more likely that Tonali remains in the Premier League should he leave Newcastle United.
