Manchester City and Manchester United are ready to compete for Sandro Tonali if Newcastle United open the door to a summer season sale, in accordance to talkSPORT’s Alex Crook.

Tonali, who joined Newcastle from AC Milan in 2023, is attracting curiosity from a number of Premier League rivals, and his agent has solely fueled the rumors about his impending switch away from Tyneside of late.

Crook outlined the state of affairs in his report for talkSPORT.

“Tonali is one of several Newcastle players attracting interest from Premier League rivals,” Crook wrote. “The Italian’s agent rather mischievously offered his client to Arsenal on transfer deadline day, although any suggestions he would be sold mid-season were immediately slapped down by Newcastle.”

Crook added that the state of affairs might evolve in the summertime, relying on how excessive Newcastle set the bar for his sale.

“The summer could be a different story and St James Park insiders fear they are heading for a repeat of last summer’s Alexander Isak saga,” Crook wrote. “Tonali’s preference is understood to be a return to Italy but Newcastle’s likely asking price of around £80m makes that a near impossibility.”

Crook went on to handle the Manchester golf equipment’ curiosity immediately, hinting at a summer season saga pitting the 2 Mancunian sides in opposition to one another.

“Manchester United are among Tonali’s suitors as they plan an expensive midfield revamp,” Crook wrote. “I wouldn’t rule him out as a potential Rodri replacement at Manchester City either.”
