Roberto De Zerbi has big plans for Tottenham, and the links with Sandro Tonali are beyond exciting.
For far too long, Spurs have missed the mark when it comes to recruitment, and De Zerbi is clearly keen to make statement signings this summer.
Tonali could leave Newcastle this summer, with the midfielder valued at the £85 million mark.

Roberto De Zerbi holds huge ace in Sandro Tonali pursuit
According to journalist Alfredo Pudello, De Zerbi might have a secret weapon to win the race to sign Tonali this summer.
It’s believed that Tonali is already keen to sign for Tottenham, given that he has a brilliant relationship with the head coach.
De Zerbi wants to improve the standards at Tottenham, and he’s undeterred when it comes to the transfer market, despite back-to-back 17th place finished for the club.
The claim made by the reputable journalist also suggests that all the big clubs in England want to sign Tonali and Tottenham might have to move fast.
Still, it’s ideal that De Zerbi has a brilliant relationship with Tonali and is also positive that he’s keen to move to Tottenham this summer.
Signing Tonali would be the ultimate statement signing and would likely entice other top players into making the switch to the club this summer.
Tonali has won a League Cup with Newcastle, and after 110 appearances for the Magpies, he would arrive as a proven Premier League option for the middle of the park.
