Sandro Tonali ahead of Newcastle move – record fee for Milan

2 years after Milan’s bargain

AC Milan and Newcastle United have sat down and possibly found a solution in the case of Sandro Tonali (23). Loud “The Athletic” the English have significantly improved their offer for the defensive midfielder and have therefore presented the Italians with a transfer fee that Milan have not generated for any player before. We are close to an agreement.

There is talk of a fee in the range of 70 million euros, which would exceed the previous record sale of the Rossoneri, Kaká in 2009, by a few million euros. Tonali would be the fourth most expensive six in football history and the most expensive Italian midfielder ever. According to other reports from Italy, the amount is not enough for the Serie A club. He is aiming for an amount in the direction of 80 million euros. According to transfer reporter Gianluca Di Marzio, Milan have not yet received an official offer.

Milan signed Tonali from Brescia Calcio in 2020 for a €10m loan plus a €20m buy option for 2021. However, the Milanese did not pull this, but negotiated. Tonali was keen to stay and Brescia had their backs to the wall as the defensive midfielder’s contract would have expired a year later – eventually agreeing to pay €6.9m plus €3m in bonuses. After that, Tonali came up trumps, was seeded during the 2021/22 championship season and was able to maintain his valuation, which had increased to a market value of 50 million euros, during the past season. This makes him one of the ten most valuable defensive midfielders in the world.
