The transfer of Sandro Tonali is expected to fetch AC Milan a record sum of roughly €70 million. The Rossoneri also owns a portion of the player's potential resale value.
The 23-year-old wanted to stay in Italy after displaying great enthusiasm for Milan, but Geoffrey Moncada's efforts allowed his departure.

With this deal, the Magpies have once again demonstrated their will to become a European superpower in the coming years.
The Rossoneri are unlikely to sell any more players from their team since this large-scale sale would help them recover their finances.
Tonali shone during Milan's Scudetto-winning season, and he possesses the ability to dominate play as well as an enormous degree of versatility across the center of the field.
