Although questions still remain over the future of the <strong\/> player. Romano says there is real interest between Arsenal and the midfielder from Newcastle United. <\/p>\n<p>However, the situation is not changing as of now. Interest remains but the idea of signing Tonali to add strength to Gunners in the <strong\/> is still a question to be answered.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" alt=\"Arsenal FC\" class=\"wp-image-144518 ewww_webp_lazy_load\" srcset=\"https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89-768x432.jpg 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89.jpg\" src-webp=\"https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89.jpg.webp\" srcset-webp=\"https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89-600x338.jpg.webp 600w, https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89-768x432.jpg.webp 768w\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89.jpg\" alt=\"Arsenal FC\" class=\"wp-image-144518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/footballexpress.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arsenal-FC-89-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>It matters simply due to how often Tonali\u2019s name is linked with Arsenal. Especially since January, when talks began about his agents finding a move for him. From there, things changed but not towards a positive end to the deal. <\/p>\n<p>Rather it turned out to be something quieter with lots of wait and complications. Thus, indicating talks between the clubs have not taken place as of now.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Manchester United appear more interested. In this case, fresh reports by Romano hints that talks have started with Tonali\u2019s team and Manchester United. This leaves Arsenal still involved but behind other clubs to sign the midfield player. Instead of pushing ahead, they seem to just watch right now and ready to act just if situations changes in their way.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal might see things differently if they looked closely. He is someone they respect yet signing him from Newcastle United will be tough. It will have a lot of competition and heavy price to sign Sandro Tonali. <\/p>\n<p>Romano spoke up again which means talk still remain, though nothing suggests movement anytime soon. Thus, it\u2019s maybe just background noise growing louder and not some real progress about the deal.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-newcastle-s-stance-will-decide-arsenal-s-next-move\">Newcastle\u2019s stance will decide Arsenal\u2019s next move<\/h2>\n<p>Arsenal\u2019s aim to join the race for Sandro Tonali depends if they view him as a key player to reshape their plans. Signing Tonali will not be an easy deal to make. This kind of signing demands heavy spending that is very carefully planned.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Newcastle\u2019s position is strong as they have a solid case. As per sources, the club feels that they do not want to let Tonali go this summer. Thus, unless a very high offer comes they will not be willing to sell him. <\/p>\n<p>Lately, stories have shown that talks will depend if Newcastle is ready to listen to offers and not other clubs interest. Therefore, showing that Newcastle United will be in complete control over this deal.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Arsenal face a doubt about how their group fits together. Though Tonali stands out, he will join a middle area packed with expensive picks and different styles. <\/p>\n<p>This forces the Gunners boss Mikel Arteta to see him not only as someone who fits in. However, it shows that they view him as someone who improves what the team can actually do.<\/p>\n<p>People talking online are divided just like the opinions on the football pitch. A few people think Tonali fits right into Arsenal\u2019s missing piece at the base of midfield. Whereas other people feel that spending big will not be a good option when they already have great midfield and needs players in other positions.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-author-s-opinion\">Author\u2019s Opinion<\/h2>\n<p>Top Journalist Fabrizio Romano has shared a fresh update about Tonali and Arsenal. In this case, Romano says that Tonali is admired by the Arsenal management. Also, Tonali would like a move to the Gunners. Meanwhile, the control of the deal remains with Newcastle. <\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the talks are paused as the deal is complicated and would require huge money. However, it will be interesting to see, What\u2019s next for Tonali and Arsenal?<\/p>\n<div class=\"preferred-source-box\" style=\"margin-top:40px;padding:25px;background: #ba0001;border:1px solid #ddd;border-radius:8px;text-align:center;\">\n<h2 style=\"font-size:24px;margin-bottom:10px;color:#fff;\">ENJOYED THIS STORY?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-size:16px;margin-bottom:20px;color:#fff;\">\n<p>                    Add Football Express as a preferred source on Google to see more of our reporting\n                <\/p>\n<p>                    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Add as a preferred source on Google\" style=\"max-width:260px;height:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goal.com\/img\/google-trusted-source\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.webp\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goal.com\/img\/google-trusted-source\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.webp\" alt=\"Add as a preferred source on Google\" style=\"max-width:260px;height:auto;\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"fe-author-box\" itemprop=\"author\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<div class=\"fe-author-avatar\">\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/cadf56d9862134562914d260c59ebd39ca738c47824352486de975028565aa1d?s=200&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-100 photo\" height=\"100\" width=\"100\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/cadf56d9862134562914d260c59ebd39ca738c47824352486de975028565aa1d?s=100&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/cadf56d9862134562914d260c59ebd39ca738c47824352486de975028565aa1d?s=100&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/cadf56d9862134562914d260c59ebd39ca738c47824352486de975028565aa1d?s=200&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-100 photo\" height=\"100\" width=\"100\" decoding=\"async\"\/>    <\/div>\n<div class=\"fe-author-content\">\n<h4 class=\"fe-author-name\" itemprop=\"name\">\n<p>                Piyush Wankhede<br \/>\n        <\/h4>\n<p class=\"fe-author-bio\" itemprop=\"description\">\n<p>                Piyush Wankhede is a junior football writer at Football Express, where he contributes articles covering news, developments, and ongoing discussions from across the football world.
