Arsenal\u2019s reported interest in Newcastle United midfielder Sandro Tonali has been firmly dismissed, putting an end to one of the most talked-about transfer rumours ahead of the summer window.<\/p>\n
Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Tonali\u2019s agent, Giuseppe Riso, has categorically denied any discussions with the Gunners. According to Riso, there has been no contact with Arsenal at any stage, and Newcastle have never considered allowing the Italian midfielder to leave in January.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe never had any conversation with Arsenal and Newcastle were never going to let Tonali leave in January. There\u2019s nothing in it at all,\u201d Riso stated, calling the speculation a \u201cnonsense topic.\u201d He further added that Tonali remains fully focused on Newcastle\u2019s current campaign and is committed to helping the Magpies achieve their objectives this season.<\/p>\n
The rumours had gained traction after reports suggested Arsenal were monitoring midfield reinforcements amid injuries and squad rotation concerns. Tonali\u2019s name naturally emerged due to his pedigree from AC Milan and his growing influence in Eddie Howe\u2019s side. However, the agent\u2019s comments make it clear that a move to the Emirates is not on the agenda anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
