Gabriele Gravina will be 'very happy' to see Sandro Tonali join Newcastle United - even though the president of the Italian Football Federation is 'sorry' to see him go.
Tonali is edging closer to a move to St James' Park after the AC Milan midfielder agreed terms on a six-year deal with the Magpies. Both clubs have since been working on the final details of the move over the weekend, but there are not expected to be any late hitches.
Tonali is currently preparing for Italy under-21s' European Championship clash against Switzerland in Romania on Sunday evening. There will then be a brief period before Italy contest their final group stage match against Norway on Wednesday if any further details need to be ironed out.
