Sandro Tonali has been accused of just joining Spurs ‘for the big bucks’ and not for his so-called desire to play in the ‘great atmosphere’ at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The north London club smashed their transfer record for the second time in a matter of days after securing the £100million capture of the Italy international from Premier League rivals Newcastle.

However, talkSPORT presenter Gabby Agbonlahor is having none of Tonali‘s ‘real reason’ for making the switch to down to the capital.

Tonali expressed his excitement to play at the home of Tottenham in his first interview as a Spurs player, to which host Jeff Stelling quipped: “He could have done that as a Newcastle player.”

Tonali said: “I can’t wait to play in this stadium. Because I played against with AC Milan in the Champions League [and] Newcastle. I found the atmosphere great; I found every time the full stadium.”

Former Aston Villa striker Agbonlahor lashed out at Tonali’s comments, however, stating: “Atmosphere? Do me a favour!”. Don’t make me laugh.

“I went to the game last season, Spurs against Aston Villa. The quietest stadium I’ve probably ever been to. Zero atmosphere.

“You’ve [Tonali] gone for the big bucks; you’ve gone for the money that Newcastle probably wouldn’t give you.

“To leave Newcastle to go to Spurs is a crazy decision. Let’s just call it as it is.”

Agbonlahor takes other Tottenham signings to task

Tonali wasn’t the only new Spurs signing to get the treatment from Agbonlahor, though, with Marcos Senesi and Andy Robertson also criticised after their free transfer moves this summer.

Indeed, Agbonlahor added on talkSPORT: “Senesi, same. You’ve gone there on a free transfer for the money. Andy Robertson, you’ve gone there for the money. So has Tonali for the money. Do me a favour. The stadium…”

Agbonlahor at least agreed with Stelling’s assessment that Roberto De Zerbi played some part in Tonali’s decision to make the switch to north London.

He added: “One thing I will say: Italian manager in De Zerbi, I’ll give him that.

“But really, Jeff, he’s gone for the big, big bucks. Spurs have got money to spend…as a Spurs fan, would I want players coming for the money? That seems to be happening.”

Tottenham are not expected to stop at Tonali, Senesi, Robertson, Jan Paul van Hecke, Martin Dubravka and Mateus Fernandes, though, with the club still in the market for a new left winger and striker.

Tottenham Hotspur have received a huge boost in their quest to sign Rafael Leao, with a journalist claiming that the AC Milan winger is ready to join manager Roberto De Zerbi at the Premier League club,

With Tottenham having already completed as many as six major signings in the summer transfer window, manager De Zerbi is now looking for a winger.

Manchester City star Savinho is on Tottenham’s radar, with the north London club having attempted to sign the Brazil international winger in the summer of 2025.

Savinho himself is reportedly ready to move to Tottenham, with Man City also willing to cash in on him this summer.

Tottenham Hotspur want to sign Rafael Leao

However, the north London outfit have not put all their eggs in one basket, with AC Milan winger Rafael Leao also a target for Tottenham, according to The Independent.

Last week, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano said that Milan are ready to sell Leao.

Even though former Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is now the new Milan boss, the Italian club have no desire to keep the Portugal international winger, who played at the ongoing 2026 World Cup.

Romano said about Leao on his YouTube channel: “After the World Cup, my understanding is that even after appointing Ruben Amorim, even after this Portuguese connection, even after the fact that Rafael Leao had some good moments at the World Cup so far, AC Milan keep considering Rafael Leao a player out of their long-term project.

“So, for AC Milan, the exit of Rafa Leao is a serious possibility.

“He remains a player available on the market, so get ready because movements around Leao could start soon, and the player is still considered in the exit list at Milan.

“So, a situation that we have to track and follow for sure.

“Then, will depend obviously on the price.

“Milan already spent big money on a Portuguese player like Goncalo Ramos, so to sell Rafael Leao, who is still under contract, they would asl for important money, but the club, Milan, remain in tension to let Rafael Leao go this summer.

“So, the doors are open.

“While Christian Pulisic is a player considered crucial for Milan by the president Gerry Cardinale, by the coach Ruben Amorim, so they want to continue with Pulisic, the situation with Leao is completely different and is expected to leave the club in this summer transfer window.”

In June, La Gazzetta dello Sport, as relayed by Football Italia, stated that Leao has a release clause of €175million (£149.3m) in his contract at Milan.

Rafael Leao wants to join Tottenham Hotspur

However, Milan are willing to sell the 27-year-old for less than that, with Italian journalist Daniele Longo now claiming that Milan want €60m (£51.2m) for Leao.

Longo, who has 148,000 followers on X, has also reported that Leao is keen on a move to Tottenham and is ready to say yes to the north London club.

Longo said about Leao on his YouTube channel: “Leao’s desire is to reach the Premier League, and he is also willing to wait for Tottenham.

“Tottenham is a welcome destination.

“If the rumours in the last few weeks turn into concrete offers of €60million, Leao is ready to say yes to Tottenham, even if he will not make it to the Champions League.”

Tottenham might finally fail to land a transfer target after a report claimed he’s now warming to the idea of joining Newcastle instead.

Spurs are splashing the cash this summer and backing Roberto De Zerbi in a big way. The clear need for experience and leadership has been fixed with the signings of three veteran free agents – Martin Dubravka, Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi.

A combined £237m has been spent on readymade Premier League players in their primes, with Jan Paul van Hecke, Mateus Fernandes and now Sandro Tonali all arriving.

The fireworks won’t stop there, however, with Spurs aiming to sign one and potentially two new wingers.

Savinho is the top target, while Rafael Leao and Cody Gakpo are also on their radar.

However, Savinho isn’t the only Manchester City player Tottenham have set their sights on, with The Independent recently confirming Spurs are ‘pushing’ to sign James Trafford.

Guglielmo Vicario is expected to return to Serie A, leaving Spurs with Antonin Kinsky, Dubravka and Brandon Austin to choose from between the sticks.

De Zerbi believes in Kinsky, though the report was keen to stress an upgrade in the form of Trafford could be signed.

Man City are ready to wave goodbye to the 23-year-old England international who was quickly superseded by Gianluigi Donnarumma last summer.

What’s more, Man City have just agreed to bring Pierce Charles back from Sheffield Wednesday in a move that paves the wav for Trafford to go.

James Trafford ‘receptive’ to joining Newcastle

Our colleagues over on TEAMtalk understand a deal can be struck with City for around £40m. But while Tottenham are pushing, they could lose out to Newcastle who want a new starting stopper of their own.

According to the Northern Echo, Trafford is now ‘receptive’ to the prospect of joining the Magpies where he’d immediately become their new No 1.

They explained: ‘They (Newcastle) remain keen on James Trafford, who is another player whose future is set to be resolved once his World Cup duties are at an end.

‘Trafford, who is the third-choice goalkeeper in Thomas Tuchel’s England squad, has accepted he will have to leave Manchester City this summer to secure regular first-team football.

‘He turned down the chance to join Newcastle last summer, instead heading to City from Burnley, but is believed to be receptive to the idea of heading to Tyneside ahead of the start of next season if the financial elements of a deal can be successfully agreed.

‘Ipswich Town are set to make a formal offer for Nick Pope, which could lead to the goalkeeper who finished last season in Newcastle’s starting side heading to Portman Road.’

Tottenham have been told they will have to pay as much as €80m to land Martin Baturina in the summer transfer window, according to reports.

The Croatia international started all four of his country’s fixtures at the World Cup as they lost 2-1 to Portugal in their Round of 32 clash last week.

Baturina had a good first season in Serie A with Como in 2025/26 with the former Dinamo Zagreb star contributing six goals and three assists in 29 appearances.

Como paid a fee of €22m to take him from Dinamo Zagreb to Italy after Baturina made 165 appearances for the Croatian side.

And now 23-year-old is attracting a lot of interest from around Europe with Premier League sides Tottenham and Aston Villa weighing up a bid.

Tottenham are looking to improve in all areas this summer after narrowly avoiding relegation to the Championship by a couple of points last term.

The Spurs hierarchy have already completed an incredible six signings with Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi and Martin Dubravka joining on free transfers from Liverpool, Bournemouth and Burnley respectively.

Jan Paul van Hecke arrived from Brighton last month in a deal worth £52m, while West Ham’s Mateus Fernandes and Newcastle United’s Sandro Tonali have also swapped allegiances to Tottenham in two deals worth around £185m.

And now 24 Sata (via Sport Witness) claims that a number of the Croatian players from the World Cup are now ‘hot commodities’ in the European market.

The newspaper adds that as far as Baturina is concerned, ‘interest is increasing, offers are pouring in, but the price has risen drastically’.

READ:Spurs are biggest spenders of the 2026 summer transfer window

Tottenham and Aston Villa have been credited with interest, as an unnamed Premier League side had a bid worth €55m (£47m) turned down.

Now Tottenham, Aston Villa and any other interested parties have been told that ‘offer €80m and he’s yours’ but it remains to be seen if any suitors are prepared to bid that high.

One thing is for sure, Spurs are not going to stop in their pursuit of more new signings with journalist Ben Jacobs revealing that they still want a left winger and a striker this summer.

Jacobs told the Market Madness podcast: “As we’ve just heard, Tottenham are going to be ambitious. They had £100million of capital injected into the club. They want a left winger, very possibly a number nine, too, so keep an eye on Tottenham right up until deadline day, because there are more signings to come.”

Tottenham now have a clearer path to completing a £60m winger signing, with Michael Carrick and Manchester United expected to step aside.

Both Man Utd and Tottenham are in the market for a new winger this summer, with Spurs potentially adding two.

Tottenham’s No 1 target is Manchester City’s Savinho. They’re also keen on Cody Gakpo at Liverpool, and according to our colleagues over on TEAMtalk, Rafael Leao too.

AC Milan and Leao will part ways this summer. The two parties have agreed to end their affiliation that dates all the way back to 2019, with an asking price of €60m-€70m / £51m-£60m set.

According to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Saudi Arabian sides are already making approaches for the Portugal international who is currently at the World Cup.

‘Rafa Leão, still expected to leave AC Milan this summer with options to be assessed post-World Cup,’ wrote Romano on X.

‘Leão and club agree on exit as best solution; Saudi Pro League clubs have started approaches. He’s waiting for European clubs but Saudi an option too.’

TEAMtalk have verified Leao would prefer to remain in Europe, and his true aim is actually to sign with a leading Premier League side.

Rafael Leao says yes to Tottenham

Accordingly, he’s been offered by his representatives to big-spending Tottenham, and the right-footer has given his approval to signing for Roberto De Zerbi’s side if they strike a club-to-club agreement with Milan.

A wrinkle in this story for Spurs comes in the form of Manchester United.

The Red Devils are also in the market for a left winger, and the latest from The Sun states they’ve been offered the player by his representatives.

They declared: ‘AC Milan and Portugal winger Rafael Leao’s representatives have approached Man Utd over a possible move.’

Man Utd decide against signing AC Milan winger

However, United boss Carrick appears to have done his old club Spurs a favour, with the report then insisting Leao is not a priority signing for Carrick. As such, Man Utd are not expected to challenge Spurs for Leao’s transfer.

‘But Michael Carrick does not view him as a key target despite interest in him,’ they added.

With the Leao route likely closed, Man Utd could put all their eggs in Crysencio Summerville’s basket.

Ben Jacobs recently claimed Man Utd have opened club-to-club talks with West Ham.

What’s more, the presence of a relegation clause in the Dutchman’s deal means he can be signed for far less than the cost of buying Leao.

Summerville can be bought for £40m, though the caveat is that fee has to be paid up front and in full.

Alternatively, West Ham are open to accepting a deal containing structured payments, so long as the overall cost of the package is higher than £40m.

Tottenham have completed the signing of Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United with the Italian claiming Spurs were the “only” club he considered.

The Spurs hierarchy have made an impressive start to their summer transfer window with six new signings through the door and more to come.

Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi and Martin Dubravka have all arrived on free transfers, while Jan Paul van Hecke cost £52m from Brighton and Mateus Fernandes swapped West Ham for Tottenham in a deal worth around £85m.

Tonali is the sixth signing through the door with Tottenham officially confirming the transfer on their official website on Monday morning, subject to a work permit.

Speaking on Spurs’ official website, Tonali commented on the move: “I’m very happy to be here. When I arrived at the Club today, it felt fantastic. People said about there being four or five clubs – there was only one.

“I spoke to the Head Coach for close to two hours about the Club, the fans, the stadium and our football. It was like magic because I knew immediately that I had to sign for Tottenham. I’ve played against Tottenham a few times and always found a great atmosphere made by great fans. I can’t wait to start the season.”

Tottenham sporting director Jonathan Lange added: “Sandro is one of the best midfielders in Europe and we are delighted to welcome him to the Club.

“He has outstanding technical quality to go with real football intelligence, and has the character to thrive in a demanding, high-pressure environment. Sandro brings valuable experience at the highest level, both domestically and in European competition and I know our supporters will love his energy and commitment on the pitch.

“We are all excited to see him pull on our famous Lilywhite shirt for the first time.”

Spurs head coach Roberto de Zerbi continued: “Sandro is a special player and a great signing for our Club.

“I have followed him for a long time, as he came through the youth system at my hometown club, Brescia, and I’m so happy to be working with him now. Given his qualities, there was a lot of interest in Sandro this summer. However, he was very clear in his desire to join Tottenham, and I know our fans will love what he brings to the team.”

Tottenham ‘reach agreement’ with Fiorentina for Radu Dragusin loan-to-buy deal

One player Tonali is unlikely to line up alongside next year is Radu Dragusin with the Romania international reportedly set to join Fiorentina this summer.

READ: Spurs are biggest spenders of the 2026 summer transfer window

Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has revealead that the Serie A side have ‘reached an agreement’ to bring Dragusin on loan from Tottenham until the end of the season with an obligation to make the deal permanent next summer.

Di Marzio wrote on his own website: ‘Fiorentina have surprisingly reached an agreement in principle for the loan of Radu Dragusin with an obligation to buy . The Viola club has reached an agreement on the basis of a loan deal worth €1.5 million , with the option to buy subject to certain conditions set at €17.5 million.’

Italian website Tuttomercatoweb have confirmed what Di Marzio has claimed and insisted that ‘medicals expected on Wednesday’ for Dragusin to join Fiorentina.

The report adds: ‘Sporting director Fabio Paratici’s work was crucial in the deal. After having already attempted to bring Dragusin to Florence during the winter transfer window, the new Viola director managed to reach an agreement with Tottenham this time, leveraging the excellent relationship he had built during his years at the London club. For Fiorentina, this is a key addition to bolster a defensive line that was in need of a reliable center back accustomed to international competition.’

Tottenham Hotspur are ready to make a blockbuster bid for Bournemouth striker Eli Junior Kroupi, according to a report, which has also revealed the name of another centre-forward who has been offered to Roberto De Zerbi’s side.

Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi, Martin Dubravka, Jan Paul van Hecke and Mateus Fernandes have all already officially joined Tottenham in the summer transfer window.

Sandro Tonali will also complete a £100million move to Tottenham from Newcastle United imminently.

According to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Spurs could also try to sign Brazilian winger Savinho from Manchester City next.

Romano said about Tottenham and Savinho on his YouTube channel: “And let me tell you, don’t forget also the name of Savinho.

“I always told you Savinho remains a target for Tottenham and Savinho is a target for Tottenham.

READ: Man City and Spurs are biggest spenders of the 2026 summer transfer window

“Then this in terms of timing will depend on several things – the transfer fee, Manchester City movements.

“So, there are a few details before we can say, okay, Tottenham are close to completing the Savinho deal.

“But the deal is still on.

“Tottenham have not stopped thinking about Savinho.

“So, remember also him after Sandro Tonali, after Mateus Fernandes, after Senesi, after Robertson, after Dubravka, because Roberto De Zerbi and the team are very busy on the market.”

Eli Junior Kroupi is also a player that Tottenham are keen on, as manager Roberto De Zerbi searches for a new centre-forward to add to his squad.

The 20-year-old French forward was a star for Bournemouth last season, scoring 13 goals in 33 Premier League matches.

Of the 35 appearances Kroupi made for the Cherries during the 2025/26 campaign, 19 of them came as a centre-forward.

Tottenham plan Eli Junior Kroupi bid

According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham have been so impressed with Kroupi that they are ready to pay as much as £75million for him.

The reliable transfer news outlet has also reported that Tottenham believe that the forward would be open to moving to the north London club to become a part of De Zerbi’s revolution.

The report has stated that ‘Tottenham believe both the player and his representatives would be open to discussions should the opportunity to work under De Zerbi arise’.

It further added: ‘Sources indicate Spurs are preparing an opening offer to test Bournemouth’s resolve, with the belief that negotiations could become realistic if the overall package exceeds £75million (€87.5m / $100m).’

TEAMtalk has also reported that Dusan Vlahovic is another option for Tottenham in their desire to sign a centre-forward in the summer transfer window.

Vlahovic is a free agent at the moment, having left Juventus at the end of last season.

The Serbia international striker has been offered to Tottenham, who are now considering their next steps.

Fabrizio Romano has revealed the latest on attempts by Tottenham to sign Manchester City winger Savinho amid “concerns” over the Sandro Tonali deal.

Spurs narrowly missed out on relegation to the Championship last season with Roberto de Zerbi’s side finishing just two points ahead of West Ham, who went down.

The Tottenham hierarchy have already taken big steps to help ensure that they aren’t in a similar position again next term by bringing in five signings already.

Andy Robertson, Martin Dubravka and Marcos Senesi have all joined on free transfers, while Jan Paul van Hecke moved from Brighton for £52m and Mateus Fernandes swapped West Ham for Tottenham in a £85m deal.

Newcastle midfielder Tonali is set to be their sixth signing of the summer with the Italy international heading to London last week to have his medical.

The deal for Tonali has not yet been officially announced, concerning some Spurs fans on social media, and Romano has brought an update on that, as well as Tottenham’s interest in the potential seventh signing of Man City winger Savinho.

Romano wrote on his YouTube channel: “Tottenham remain one of the busiest clubs in the transfer market. Sandro Tonali’s move is done, sealed and not in doubt.

“Many fans are asking why the transfer has not yet been announced, but there is no reason for concern. The contracts, medical, paperwork and every part of the agreement have been completed. The timing of the official announcement is entirely down to the club.

“Savinho also remains a target for Tottenham. As I have consistently reported, the club are still working on the deal. The timeline will depend on several factors, including Manchester City’s position and the transfer fee. Tottenham have not moved on from Savinho and continue to consider him an important target.

“After completing deals for Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes, Marcos Senesi, Andy Robertson and Martin Dubravka, Roberto De Zerbi and his recruitment team remain extremely active in the market.”

Tonali: Tottenham wanted the best from me

Speaking to reporters in Italy before boarding a flight to England on Thursday, Tonali said on his imminent move to Tottenham: “It was a bit long. We had a sort of agreement with Newcastle, we spoke every day and we made it.

“They wanted the best from me, we wanted the best deal for them. We parted on excellent terms.

“We’re all happy and I’m ready for this new adventure.”

He added: “Why Tottenham? De Zerbi played a huge role in this, and it’s also a lifestyle and family choice after three years at Newcastle.

“De Zerbi deserves much of the credit. He did it not only as a Brescia native and a friend, but also as a hard worker.

“He’s committed to this. We’ll take it step by step. Medicals and signing, and then we’ll go on retreat.

“The team will be assembled in a month because the World Cup is here.

“The club is coming off a difficult season, but we’ll try to make sure everything goes well.”

Fabrizio Romano has revealed Tottenham have accepted the exit of one of their defenders, who ‘asked to leave’ the club this summer, with his price confirmed.

Spurs’ defence will look massively different in the coming season. They’ve signed Marcos Senesi, Andy Robertson and Jan Paul van Hecke there – the latter pair are expected to start regularly.

They have also sold Luka Vuskovic to Brighton, though he was out on loan last season anyway. Now, another centre-back looks to be departing the north London club.

Transfer insider Romano reports Radu Dragusin will have a medical at Fiorentina early next week after the agreement of his move there.

The insider states Tottenham granted the centre-back the chance of the move after he ‘asked to leave.’

He’ll depart to the Italian club on a season-long loan, with a buy obligation following that – the entire package, including his wages, is said to be £16.5million.

Dragusin gone but not how it was expected

There was an expectation that Dragusin would exit Tottenham this summer, given after he returned from injury last season, he was unable to break into the top three central defenders – Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero and Kevin Danso taking those spots.

Former Spurs scout Bryan King felt the Romanian would be given the boot, but to make place for Vuskovic.

He said: “The one thing they’ve got to be looking at is letting go of Dragusin. They’ll be bringing Vuskovic back out, and then they can sell Dragusin.”

On Vuskovic, he said: “You’d want him back at your club if he’s progressing how he’s expected to progress. He will be a very big asset to bring back and use next season.”

Though there were multiple reports suggesting Tottenham felt Vuskovic could go on to become one of the best centre-backs in European football, they seemingly didn’t feel he had enough to usurp their top options this season.

As such, they sold him, having signed Senesi and Van Hecke, and evidently they feel those two can have more of an immediate impact than the Croatian international can.

Should Vuskovic go onto big things, the decision will look a poor one, but it feels this summer at Tottenham, with those signings and the additions of Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes taken into account, that they want to succeed now, not wait a few years.

Dragusin is a consequence of seemingly better defenders being signed.

A fresh report has detailed why Sandro Tonali’s record-breaking £100million move to Tottenham Hotspur has not yet been officially announced, although there’s no need for panic in north London just yet.

The Italy international was filmed at a Milan airport on Thursday, as he flew to London to undergo a medical ahead of his switch to big-spending Spurs.

Tonali actually spoke to Sky Italy on his way through the airport and admitted the key role Tottenham boss Roberto De Zerbi has played in his imminent capture.

“De Zerbi played a huge role in this decision,” he said. “He deserves a lot of the credit.”

On what to expect from him at Tottenham, Tonali was measured as he added: “We have to take everything slowly, starting with the pre-season training camp.”

While the delay is threatening to send some Tottenham fans into meltdown, given what happened when their moves for Morgan Gibbs-White and Eberechi Eze dramatically fell through last summer, it’s now being reported that the delay is down to Newcastle announcing a new signing of their own.

Indeed, a post from Hotspur Lane on X stated: “Rumours circulating that the reason for the delay for the Sandro Tonali announcement is due to #THFC having to wait for Newcastle to announce their signing of Bazoumana Toure…🤷‍♂️

“If the player has signed the contract, which it seems like he has, I’ve got no idea why we have to announce it Newcastle’s terms.”

Tottenham insider insists Tonali announcement is close

Meanwhile, Spurs insider Paul O’Keefe has confirmed that the deal is still very much in place and that there is no cause for panic.

Asked why the announcement had not yet come through despite the transfer being agreed days ago, O’Keefe was straightforward: “Everything is ready to go. Just have to be patient.”

In a follow-up reply, he added: “There is a reason but nothing to worry about.”

The Athletic have also broken down the figures behind the transfer, with Tottenham expected to pay £92.5m up front with a further £7.5m in achievable add-ons for the 26-year-old.

The impressive addition of Tonali will see the club smash their transfer record twice in a matter of days, while also taking their spending over £230m for the summer.

Indeed, Tottenham, with the help of more capital coming in from majority owners the Lewis Family, are cooking on gas after snapping up Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi and Martin Dubravka on free transfers, while also adding Brighton centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke in a £52m deal and splashing out £85m on Mateus Fernandes.
