Tottenham agrees personal terms with Sandro Tonali amid Arsenal interest

Tottenham Hotspur has reached an agreement on personal terms with Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali. The deal would see Tonali, 26, sign a long-term contract that reportedly includes a large sign-on bonus and a pay rise. Although personal terms have been settled, Tottenham must still negotiate a transfer fee with Newcastle, who is expected to demand over £100 million. This move positions Tottenham strongly in the transfer market after already securing additional signings. Tonali's performances for Newcastle have drawn interest from several clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City, but he appears committed to joining Tottenham.
