Manchester City Monitor Sandro Tonali Transfer Situation
Manchester City are closely monitoring Newcastle United midfielder Sandro Tonali ahead of the summer transfer window. A report by The Sun says the Premier League champions admire the Italy international but could face competition from Arsenal and Chelsea for his signature.
Tonali has become a key figure at Newcastle United and remains one of the most reliable midfielders in Eddie Howe’s squad. His consistent performances have attracted attention from several top English clubs.
Tonali’s Performances at Newcastle United
The 25 year old midfielder has delivered a steady run of performances in central midfield this season. He has registered five assists in 35 appearances across all competitions, highlighting his ability to support both defensive and attacking phases of play.
Tonali is a regular starter at St James’ Park and plays an important role in Newcastle’s tactical setup. His contract runs until the summer of 2028, which places the club in a strong position during any potential transfer negotiations.

Why Tonali Fits Pep Guardiola’s System
Tonali is known for his strong positional awareness, disciplined tackling, and ability to read danger early. He recovers possession efficiently and keeps his passing simple and effective under pressure.
Although he primarily operates as a defensive midfielder, Tonali can also play as a box to box midfielder when required. His Premier League experience means he would require minimal adaptation if he joined Manchester City.
Potential Impact at Manchester City
Pep Guardiola values midfielders who combine intelligence, technical ability, and tactical discipline. Tonali fits that profile and could add depth and competition to City’s midfield unit.
At 25, he is entering his peak years and offers long term value. If a deal becomes possible, Tonali could strengthen Manchester City’s push for domestic and European honours in the coming seasons.
Manchester City are expected to continue monitoring his situation as the summer window approaches.
