Qualified for the Champions League, Newcastle passes a course on the transfer market. The Magpies complete the most expensive transfer in history for Sandro Tonali.
More powerful since the arrival of the Saudi Investment Fund at its head, Newcastle had remained relatively modest in its purchases last season compared to the big European teams. This time seems over with the qualification of the Magpies in the Champions League. The northern English club paid 70 million euros to hire Sandro Tonali. The 23-year-old Italian midfielder arrives from AC Milan. He signed a five-year contract at Newcastle, becoming the most expensive transfer in club history just ahead of Alexander Isak last season (70 million but with bonus).

” At 23, Sandro already has significant experience as a key player in a major European championship and in the Champions League, as well as in the national team. But he also has the opportunity and the potential to progress and evolve with us. I’m excited to include him in our squad and can’t wait to see what he does in the exciting season ahead of us. “Reacted Newcastle manager Eddie Howe.
