La Gazzetta dello Sport report that Newcastle declared their interest a few days ago and while they have not yet submitted a formal written offer, they made it known they are willing to pay €50-60m to sign the Italian.
That is a figure that could increase in the next few hours too and it would provide Milan with the money to reshape the squad in a big way in the upcoming summer window.
Tonali’s will at this point becomes fundamental because Newcastle’s offer is €8m net per season, over three times what he gets currently. However, the Rossoneri are his boyhood club and one with whom he achieved a dream.
He would move to a very rich team for more money, but one that still has to prove that they can win trophies and would live in a city that is not Milano. These reflections will guide the process towards a final decision.
Chelsea have also let Milan know that they are interested in Tonali and have spoken of an offer that would include money and players, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Christian Pulisic admired by Milan.
There is an ongoing negotiation between Chelsea and Brighton for Moises Caicedo though, who is at the top of their list.
