Manchester City remain active as well. Spurs want to make a statement signing with Roberto De Zerbi stressing the importance of adding in central midfield.”Spurs are working very hard to get Tonali deal over the lineTransfer guru Fabrizio Romano has also backed up Jacobs’ assertion, claiming that Spurs are not surprised at their first bid being turned down, adding that it was ‘part of the plan’.He revealed that Tottenham remain in conversations with Tonali’s camp, as well as Newcastle, and are ‘working hard’ to complete the deal.Romano said on his YouTube channel: “Tottenham entered the race strong to sign Sandro Tonali and Sandro Tonali is open to joining Tottenham. Tottenham are real contenders to sign Sandro Tonali, Tottenham are strong contenders for Sandro Tonali and Tottenham are very serious.“It’s a bid, it was sent three days ago. Tottenham sent an official bid, £75m, rejected by Newcastle, they want more. The first bid is never getting accepted, it’s normal and common knowledge in football that when you want to negotiate for a top player with a big transfer fee that the first bid never gets accepted.“It’s part of the plan, because for Tottenham it was the message sent to the player and to Newcastle as well, but especially the player, to show that they are serious. It’s not the bid we need to talk about now, Tottenham remain in conversations with those close to Tonali and Tottenham remain in conversations to make a new bid. Tottenham are there and working for Tonali, they are working very hard and very strong to get Sandro Tonali.”READ MORE: When Tottenham could complete Sandro Tonali deal after £75m opening bidThe post How high Tottenham are willing to go for Sandro Tonali after £75m rejected bid appeared first on Spurs Web.
