Sandro Tonali has wasted little time in embracing the attention that comes with being the newest big-money signing for Newcastle United. The 23-year-old posed for Toon fans just moments after he had touched down on Tyneside from Milan.
As dozens of fans waited outside of St James' Park for the midfielder's arrival on Wednesday, two lucky fans bumped into Tonali as the Italian international set about laying down some roots in the North East - by instantly going to view a house to live.
The former AC Milan star happily posed for pictures with the youngsters - Thomas and Mia. It's said Tonali speaks 'perfect English,' which will please Toon fans who had questioned whether he'd have to learn the language.
