Similar to Gordon I imagine Tonali’s non-PL price would be more like £80m. If any Italian club could afford that and big wages he’d probably go there. I’m glad we’re attempting to add a PL premium though.

 

That's probably his true value tbf. Everyone else in this Country tries to rinse us though so it's important we fight fire with fire.

If only there was a couple of months in the year where you're allowed to sign players.

Agree, if we find out tomorrow he’s going to Atletico for £80m I’d be fine. Can’t be less than £90m in the PL.

Hopefully he won't have to send pigeons back and forth to Riyad every time we have to raise our bids.


sending fucking detailed info on players we try to sign to a bunch of finance and real estate folks + royals and friends of the royals in Riyadh kills me. Just mostly people who have no fucking clue about football deciding if we can make bids ffs. Delegate authority man

he hasn't ended up being as immense as i felt sure he would (for us, anyway), and doesn't seem to have fallen in love with newcastle - but that goal vs brentford, which was right in front of me in the leazes, honestly made me think i might be having a stroke

Miley is class and Ramsey has shown some good stuff.  This best midfield in the PL was always horseshit imo 

 

Back in May 2025 I wouldn't have swapped any midfield in the PL for ours.

We have good midfield options, the problem has always been finding the right balance. Bruno, Joelinton, Miley, Ramsey plus at least one more is great for a club not in Europe. I assume Willock will go. Then it depends if we are going to utilise a 10 (Nick?) or not. 
 

It is great money if we can strengthen the squad as a whole, obviously that’s the big if but it’s not even July yet, so hopefully the bed wetters can wait until much later in the window

Cannot believe we've received a first bid of £80 million for Tonali after what he's served up over the past season man. What a world [emoji38]

 

1 year out completely, 1 year of good play, and 1 year of poor play. £80 million plus fee!

 

This guy just hasn't been good enough at Newcastle, and he has to go. Very fortunate that somehow this kind of fee is being put up for him really.

 

Let De Zerbi or Maresca figure him out, if they are able to. No way this kind of money should be turned down for him, especially with all the constant noise from his people since January on top of everything else. Just ridiculous.

I love Tonali tbh but we can replace him and get what we need in our midfield by with that money. 
 

sell Willock and Tonali and you could literally get a 6, 8 and 10 with that money. 

How much do you think we are getting for Willock?

Totally agree, get a proper defensive mid too stop teams walking through the middle so much

That’s true but I have zero confidence we will buy well or even get our targets.

Forest knocking back £121m for Anderson has kinda set the rate for this window for midfielders. 

 

It's not unreasonable at all for us to ask for £100m now, Spurs could stump up the cash and they may not even feel like they're overpaying :lol:

I also have zero confidence in a new season with the same manager and the same squad, something has to change for me.

That and the Gordon cash should help to finance a rebuild. But again - it's about bringing the right players in. 

Clubs knowing we have the money, are undisclosed fees still a thing?
