Tottenham Hotspur are set to break their transfer record for the second time in days with the imminent signing of Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United, according to BBC Sport and Naija News.

The club has agreed a deal for the Italian midfielder, reaching terms that surpass their previous record transfer. The move underscores a shift in Tottenham’s financial strategy, enabling greater investment in the first team.

Tonali’s arrival signals a new phase of squad development under manager Ange Postecoglou. The midfielder brings experience from his time in Italy and England, adding depth and versatility to Tottenham’s central midfield options.

“Spurs’ statement spending looks set to continue,” BBC Sport reported, citing the club’s improved financial footing as a key enabler. The signing follows another record-breaking acquisition earlier in the week, though details of that transfer were not confirmed in the sources.

Naija News confirmed the agreement is worth up to an undisclosed amount, marking one of the most significant transfers of the summer window. No official announcement has been made by either club.

Tottenham’s intensified recruitment strategy suggests ambitions to strengthen competitively in the Premier League and European competitions.
