"There's mounting speculation at the moment that Tonali could be on his way out of St James' Park in the summer following interest from Arsenal and other clubs. It seems Keown thinks this could spark other departures for Newcastle, as he named Guimaraes as another big name who could leave if Tonali ends up being sold. The Brazil international has been linked with big clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona and PSG in recent times, though he's ended up staying at Newcastle so far."
"You do have to have sympathy with Eddie [Howe] and the supporters because one by one they cherry-pick these players. Isak was obviously the player last year, we all know Tonali, Bruno will be the next one, Keown said. You need to do well, secure Champions League football otherwise, one by one you lose these players and it's only going to cost more money to bring the next generation in."
There is mounting speculation that Sandro Tonali could leave St James' Park in the summer following interest from Arsenal and other clubs. Tonali's potential sale could prompt further departures from Newcastle, with Bruno Guimaraes named as a likely candidate to move on. Bruno Guimaraes has been linked with Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona and PSG but has remained at Newcastle to date. With Alexander Isak having departed last summer and Tonali's future uncertain, Newcastle could struggle to persuade Guimaraes to commit long-term. Failure to secure Champions League football would increase the risk of losing key players and raise replacement costs.
