Newcastle United’s head coach Eddie Howe has made an interesting comparison between his player Sandro Tonali and Italian football legend Andrea Pirlo. Howe who is known for knowing his tactics really well sees how similar they are in the way they play and pass the ball. Since Tonali came to Newcastle in summer 2023 from AC Milan everyone’s been watching him expecting him to bring something special to the midfield. The big money transfer that cost about €70 million shows how serious Newcastle is about getting better with Howe in charge.
- Sandro Tonali moving from AC Milan to Newcastle United is a really big deal for the money and his future.
- Tonali’s really good with the ball and passes really nice which makes people think of Andrea Pirlo.
- Newcastle’s big moves are backed up by Saudi Public Investment Fund with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman running things.
Tonali’s Transition to Newcastle
Sandro Tonali moving from AC Milan to Newcastle United is like starting fresh in his career. He’s super good with the ball and passes it really nice which makes everyone think about Andrea Pirlo who’s like a master of football. At AC Milan he got really good at all this stuff and helped the team a lot in the middle of the field. Now he’s in the Premier League trying to do even better than before maybe even better than what he did in the past.

Newcastle’s Ambitious Strategy
Newcastle United’s got the Saudi Public Investment Fund behind them with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in charge that’s why they can make these big moves. But now they got new rules to deal with in the Premier League about who owns what. These new rules might change how they do things going forward. With Eddie Howe running things and getting expensive players like Tonali you can see Newcastle really wants to be one of the best teams.
By putting good management together with really talented players Newcastle United wants to become one of the strongest teams in English football. If you wanna know more about what Newcastle’s doing check out:
