The summer promises to be particularly delicate for Newcastle, around two midfield executives, Bruno Guimarães and Sandro Tonali. According to information from Telegraphthe English club initially expected Tonali to leave during the summer transfer window, while the hypothesis of a sale of its Brazilian captain gradually gained momentum, to the point of causing real concern internally. In a context where Eddie Howe’s management was aiming for a reconstruction phase, the Magpies find themselves especially confronted with persistent speculation around their major players, which weakens the readability of the project for the 2026-2027 financial year.
Concerning Bruno Guimarães, Newcastle still affirms its firm desire to keep him, deeming him untransferable despite the supposed interest of several major English clubs, including Arsenal. The club believes it has not received any formal offer, even if the market around the Brazilian seems to be active behind the scenes. For Sandro Tonali, the situation seems different, but just as open: closely followed by Manchester City and Tottenham. After his suspension and a season considered mixed, a departure is no longer ruled out, provided that an offer meets the club’s requirements.
