Sandro Tonali exit latest

One of the big talking points at St James’ Park going into the summer transfer window will be Sandro Tonali’s future. Eddie Howe’s side look almost incapable of qualifying for European football next season and as Tonali won’t be going to the World Cup with Italy this summer, the Newcastle midfielder is going to be eyed up as a fresh option for top clubs either in the Premier League or elsewhere on the continent. Arsenal, Manchester City, and Manchester United are potential destinations for Tonali should he stay in England, with Newcastle reportedly seeking a £100million transfer fee. If he does go, Football Insider transfer correspondent Pete O’Rourke has reported that Newcastle plan to sign several new midfielders with the money earned from this sale.

Target Scouting Report

Summer 2026 Recruitment: Tonali Replacements

TRANSFER RUMOURS
Player / Current Club Position Heat Rating Latest Intel
MANUEL UGARTE
Manchester United
Defensive Midfield
The primary candidate to provide the grit lost by Tonali’s exit. Rumours suggest a massive bid is being prepared to test United’s resolve.
LAMINE CAMARA
Monaco
Central Midfield
Monaco are willing to negotiate. Seen as a dynamic box-to-box option that mirrors Tonali’s energy, though Man Utd remain a rival for his signature.
CHEMA ANDRÉS
Real Madrid Castilla
Central Midfield
The “technical” alternative. Scouting reports highlight his elite passing range. Madrid may consider a loan-to-buy to facilitate first-team growth.

Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte looks like a top contender to replace Tonali. He’s struggling for regular game time at Old Trafford and Newcastle have a long-term interest in the Uruguay international. If Michael Carrick stays in charge at Man United past the end of this season – which is looking likely – there’s every chance that Ugarte could be heading to Tyneside.

Newcastle United expiring contracts June 2026

Newcastle may have some decisions to make this summer on players such as Tino Livramento and Tonali if high bids come in from their rivals.

But there are also calls to be made on those who are out of contract at the end of June, with Kieran Trippier and Fabian Schar the most prominent names of those whose deals run out in the next few months.
