Manchester United<\/a> will rebuild their squad with a number of new signings during the summer transfer<\/a> window, and a midfielder\u2019s acquisition is expected to be one of their top priorities following Casemiro<\/a>\u2019s exit.<\/p>\n

Newcastle United<\/a> star Sandro Tonali has been linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent weeks and with the Magpies missing out on Champions League<\/a> football for next season, there is a serious possibility that some of their key players leave.<\/p>\n

\"Rememore<\/a><\/div>\n

Tonali, who is valued at \u00a370 million on Transfermarkt<\/a>, is expected to be among those on the move and apart from United, there is interest in his services from Arsenal<\/a> and Juventus. For a player of his calibre, Newcastle will demand a lofty price.<\/p>\n

Caught Offside has reported<\/a> that Juve are unlikely to pay through their nose for Tonali, therefore putting Man United in the driving seat to get the Italian international\u2019s transfer over the line, even ahead of Arsenal.<\/p>\n

United now the favourites for Tonali<\/h2>\n

Even though Sandro Tonali might be tempted by a move to Arsenal, it remains to be seen what kind of a role he has in a side that already boasts a quality midfield and might not even be willing to pay as much for his services with Julian Alvarez their priority.<\/p>\n

Having said that, Manchester United might have a clear path to the Newcastle United midfielder\u2019s signing this summer as they have qualified for the Champions League, will provide him with regular game time and can also afford his asking price.<\/p>\n

With Italy not playing in the World Cup this summer, the player\u2019s transfer might materialise sooner rather than later to allow Newcastle to sign a replacement in a timely manner, whilst also ensuring Tonali is available to Man United at the start of pre-season.<\/p>\n
