Tottenham Reach Major Breakthrough in Pursuit of Sandro Tonali
Spurs have been strongly linked with a move for the Newcastle United midfielder this summer and saw an initial £75million bid rejected by the Magpies earlier this month. However, their reporter Orazio Accomando has added that there is yet to be an agreement between Newcastle and Spurs regarding a fee, but the north London outfit hope to have a deal wrapped up this week. Spurs now need to finalise an agreement with Newcastle over the fee and how it will be paid. The north Londoners face competition in the race to sign Tonali, with Manchester City also strongly linked with the 26-year-old, despite their agreement with Nottingham Forest to sign Elliot Anderson for £116million plus add-ons. Already, Tottenham have signed Jan Paul van Hecke for £52million from Brighton while Martin Dubravka, Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi have also arrived on free transfers. However, they are also in talks with West Ham United over a deal for midfielder Mateus Fernandes who is also reportedly courting interest from Manchester United and Real Madrid, amongst others.

Jan Paul van Hecke: Tottenham sign Brighton defender for £52m | Football News | Sky Sports
Tottenham sign Brighton defender for £52m | Football News | Sky Sports Football Tottenham sign Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton in deal worth £52m; defender worked with Roberto De Zerbi at Brighton, playing 50 games under the Italian; Van Hecke set to join Marcos Senesi as Spurs look to revamp their defence Reporter @MichaelBridge_ Friday 19 June 2026 10:34, UK Tottenham have signed Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke for £52m. The Netherlands international defender had one year left on his contract at Brighton and played at the Seagulls under Roberto De Zerbi between 2023 and 2024. Brighton are making considerable profit on the 26-year-old, having signed him for £1.8m from NAC Breda in 2020. Van Hecke is Tottenham's third signing of the De Zerbi era, after Marco Sensi and Andy Robertson joined on free transfers. The club is determined to back De Zerbi in the market and have a strong interest in Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali, while they also remain interested in Manchester City forward Savinho. If a big offer comes in for Romero, they will consider it. Sky Sports' Sam Blitz: You don't need to be a rocket scientist to work out what Tottenham are trying to do in this transfer window: In agreeing a deal for Van Hecke - having already secured the free transfer of Marcos Senesi - Spurs are looking for excellent ball progressors in the first phase of play. Spurs getting two ball-playing defenders is a sign that this is something they feel they lack.
