Sandro Tonali
25-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Tonali completed his first full year with Newcastle after he was suspended for most of his debut season, starting 28 of 36 appearances. He plays deepest of Newcastle's midfielders, which led to only four goals and two assists, but his upside was seen later in the season when he took set pieces. While that's not a certainty in the new season, there's a chance Tonali may have won the job and if that's the case, set pieces from a defensive midfielder gives you a little bit of everything in fantasy, something that could be useful later in drafts.
Assist in Carabao Cup
Tonali recorded an assist in Wednesday's 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Tottenham.
ANALYSIS
Tonali was back in the starting XI Wednesday for his club after two games on the bench, with the midfielder playing the full 90 following an illness. He would go on to record an assist as well, finding Fabian Schar early in the match. The Italian should be cleared to return to his starting role moving forward now that he is fit, recording eight starts in nine league appearances this season while bagging an assist, although he is still without a goal.
