Sandro Tonali's agent has dropped a hint on the next stage of his client's transfer to Newcastle United after a round of important talks in Milan with Dan Ashworth.
Tonali's agent Guiseppe Riso, along with Newcastle's sporting director Dan Ashworth and Toon head of recruitment Steve Nickson have departed from talks in Italy and are heading to Romania where Tonali is currently based for the Under-21 European Championships. It is in eastern Europe where Newcastle hope to complete the deal, with a medical and the usual formalities involved.
Newcastle have agreed terms with Tonali and the midfielder will double his wages on Tyneside. A six-year deal is believed to be on the table for the 23-year-old. There have been some suggestions in Italy that Newcastle have agreed on a fee for the midfielder, but nothing has been confirmed at the Newcastle end at this stage.
