Tottenham's dream XI with Marcus Rashford and Sandro Tonali after £192m transfer spree - The Mirror Tottenham Hotspur are targeting Newcastle United star Sandro Tonali(Image: Stu Forster/Getty Images) However, Spurs' recruitment drive is far from over as the club had an £80m offer rejected for Newcastle United midfielder Sandro Tonali and have also been linked with England forward Marcus Rashford. The 29-year-old has been linked with a move back to Italy, though given the overhauls to other areas of the squad, De Zerbi might choose to retain Vicario to prevent wholesale changes to yet another part of his team. ChronicleLive reported that Spurs' £80m bid was turned down as Newcastle value the midfielder at around £100m. Should Tottenham meet Newcastle's asking price and ward off rival clubs for Tonali, he could partner Conor Gallagher in the centre of midfield. Tottenham have been linked with a move for Marcus Rashford(Image: Robbie Jay Barratt - AMA/Getty Images) Marcus Rashford would represent another high-profile signing for Spurs, following his impressive loan spell at Barcelona. The i paper reports that Spurs are reluctant to meet a £40m valuation for the Manchester United forward, who reportedly favours a switch overseas, but securing a deal for the 28-year-old would further illustrate De Zerbi's ambitions. In summary, Van Hecke's £52m transfer should strengthen Spurs' defensive line and he is already familiar with De Zerbi's playing philosophy.

Spurs have been working hard on a deal and are believed to be optimistic that Tonali is open to the move, but City’s arrival could change the whole picture. City have already agreed a £116m deal for Anderson, with Sky Sports reporting that the fee would make him the most expensive British player ever. Anderson brings energy, carrying power and Premier League quality, but Tonali offers something slightly different. talkSPORT has reported that Newcastle rejected an offer worth around £80m and want more than £100m, so Spurs were already facing a difficult negotiation before City’s possible move. Spurs may have Roberto De Zerbi as a key attraction, but City can offer a stronger recent winning culture, Champions League football and the chance to play under Maresca in a possession-heavy system.
Tottenham enter transfer race for Arsenal and Man Utd target Sandro Tonali - The Mirror
Tottenham enter transfer race for Arsenal and Man Utd target Sandro Tonali - The Mirror Sandro Tonali is a Tottenham target(Image: Alex Livesey) Tottenham have emerged as the latest Premier League team with designs on landing Sandro Tonali, with the midfielder seemingly poised to become the second Newcastle player to be sold for big money in the summer transfer window. Newcastle are vulnerable to losing Tonali and other top stars after a chastening 2025-26 campaign and it would appear that Tottenham are also preparing a move for the playmaker. While it remains to be seen if Tonali would fancy a move to Tottenham after they too endured a disappointing season, the appointment of De Zerbi has been well received as he bids to return them to the upper echelons of the Premier League. The former Brighton boss saved Tottenham from relegation but their unwanted brush with the Championship has not dampened the club's ambition — and landing a player of Tonali's calibre ahead of some of the Premier League's top clubs would be a real statement of intent. Roberto De Zerbi wants to bring Tonali to Spurs(Image: Visionhaus/Getty Images) Spurs have wasted no time in bolstering their squad since the end of the season, adding Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi on free transfers from Liverpool and Bournemouth respectively.

According to journalist Ben Jacobs, Spurs are optimistic about the player’s stance, although a deal with Newcastle is still far from simple. Manchester City and Arsenal are also interested, but Tottenham appear to be the club pushing hardest at this stage. This pursuit is separate from Tottenham’s interest in Mateus Fernandes, with Spurs and Manchester United both in talks with West Ham over the Portuguese midfielder. Tonali would be a brilliant signing for Tottenham, but only if the fee stays within reason. Still, if De Zerbi sees Tonali as the player to shape his midfield, Tottenham may feel this is the deal worth stretching for. For Spurs, landing Tonali ahead of Arsenal and City would be one of the biggest moves of the summer.
