Sandro Tonali has revealed he was convinced to join Tottenham following a ten-minute conversation with Roberto De Zerbi, despite his temptation to move home to Italy.
The 26-year-old Italian moved south from Newcastle earlier this summer in a transfer which could be worth as much as £100m if add-ons are achieved. It is a club-record deal, eclipsing the £85m they spent to bring in West Ham’s Mateus Fernandes earlier that week.
