Sandro Tonali: Tottenham sign Italy midfielder in club-record £100m deal from Newcastle

Tottenham have signed Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United in a club-record £100m deal.

The midfielder, who is expected to earn more than £275,000 per week, was keen to work under Spurs boss and fellow Italian Roberto De Zerbi, despite interest from elsewhere, including Manchester City.

It is the second-highest fee Newcastle have ever received for a player. The highest was the £125m that Liverpool paid for Alexander Isak last summer.
