Newcastle United are poised to receive a \u00a360million boost from a sponsorship deal that could impact Manchester City’s pursuit of Sandro Tonali. Though Elliot Anderson is their top target<\/a>, the Italian is another option with Tottenham and Arsenal also linked.<\/p>\n Having fallen short of securing any European football, a high-profile sale seemed inevitable at Newcastle, with Anthony Gordon appearing to be the chosen departure as he completed a \u00a369m move to Barcelona earlier this month.<\/p>\n Despite that exit, Tonali could also be on his way out \u2014 though the Magpies’ hand has been strengthened by a front-of-shirt sponsorship agreement with KNOX Hydration, believed to be worth \u00a360m, according to the Manchester Evening News’ sister title the Chronicle<\/a>.<\/p>\n Get MEN Premium now for just \u00a31 HERE<\/a> \u2013 or get involved in our City WhatsApp group by clicking HERE<\/a>.

Their report further states that KNOX will contribute around \u00a310m for the upcoming 2026\/27 season, rising to \u00a325m-per-year for the two subsequent seasons.<\/p>\n Such a substantial financial uplift could prove influential in negotiations over Tonali, with Newcastle no longer under pressing need to raise significant funds.<\/p>\n FOLLOW OUR MAN CITY FB PAGE!

Meanwhile, held talks with his representatives, Spurs appeared to be in the driving seat for Tonali<\/a>.<\/p>\n NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, ENGLAND – OCTOBER 5: Elliot Anderson of Nottingham Forest and Sandro Tonali of Newcastle United during the Premier League match between Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest at St James’ Park on October 5, 2025 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.

The future of Luka Vuskovic was closely tied to that \u00a352million move, with Brighton having bids rejected by Spurs for the Croatian defender.<\/p>\n Arsenal, meanwhile, are yet to bring in any new signings, but are now actively pursuing a deal for Leicester City youngster Jeremy Monga.<\/p>\n Bournemouth’s Eli Junior Kroupi, Paris Saint-Germain star Bradley Barcola and Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers have all been mentioned as potential attacking targets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sandro Tonali is a midfield transfer target for Manchester City, but Newcastle United may no longer desperately need…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":646729,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[59,2734,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-646728","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-gb","tag-manchester-city-transfer-news","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646728","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=646728"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646728\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/646729"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=646728"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=646728"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=646728"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/0_GettyImages-2238947581.jpg\")
