Newcastle United's Contract Plans
Newcastle United is expected to initiate talks to secure a new contract for the "exceptional" player Sandro Tonali at St James' Park, according to Mick Brown.
The team has experienced a mixed start to the season, with two wins, three draws, and two defeats from seven games, leaving them 11th in the Premier League table. Their recent 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest was a positive note.
The summer transfer window brought uncertainty, particularly with Alexander Isak's deadline day move to Liverpool. This departure, along with rumors of other players like Anthony Gordon and Bruno Guimaraes leaving, has prompted the club to prioritize retaining their key players long-term.
The move has reinforced the stance at St James Park that they will do everything in their power to keep their best players at the club long-term.
