Tottenham have broken their own club transfer record for the second time this summer, agreeing a deal worth up to £100 million ($133 million) to bring Sandro Tonali to north London from Newcastle United.

The agreement marks a remarkable escalation in Tottenham's spending this window, with the club surpassing their previous record — itself set earlier this summer — to secure one of the most coveted midfielders in European football.

Tonali makes the move from Newcastle United in what represents a significant departure for the Magpies, who had fought hard to establish themselves as one of the Premier League's heavyweight clubs.
