Manchester United are reported to be planning for a summer move, but St James&#8217; Park bosses remain unconcerned by suggestions Tonali could leave at the end of the season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>The midfielder&#8217;s contract runs until 2028, with an option for a further year, meaning Newcastle can set whatever fee they see fit for the midfielder. Tonali&#8217;s current contract with the club has no release clause or special arrangements. The Chronicle reported that any suggestion that Newcastle would enter into a &#8220;gentlemen&#8217;s agreement&#8221; to leave the club at the end of the season if they fail to secure European football is &#8220;completely false&#8221;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>But the issue is that Tonali&#8217;s agent, Giuseppe Riso, has spoken openly about his client&#8217;s prospects of leaving the Magpies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>When asked about a possible move to Man City or Arsenal earlier this month, Riso said: &#8220;That was exactly the goal from the moment he went to England, to try to make him a star player.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;I think he&#8217;s one of the most highly valued Italian footballers in the world. If he shines at the World Cup, will City or Arsenal follow him? I don&#8217;t know, but it&#8217;s very likely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>\u201cEveryone is looking forward to the World Cup and after that there are a thousand different scenarios that will unfold, but it all starts after the World Cup.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Howe was quick to deny the rumors last week at Barcelona, \u200b\u200bsaying: &#8220;The most important person is Sandro. All I&#8217;ve ever seen from him is a completely committed person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;Sometimes he&#8217;s very selfless. He&#8217;s not here for himself but for the team. Forget about the noise around him, he just gives his all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Howe is frustrated by persistent reports about key player departures and by branding Bruno Guimar\u00e3es&#8217; suggestion last week that he was in advanced talks with Manchester United as &#8220;disrespectful&#8221;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"photo changeSpace\">\n<p class=\"withoutCaption\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"zoomEnabled\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/1200x712\/secondary\/sandro-tonali-of-italy-celebrates-after-scoring-first-goal-during-the-uefa-world-cup-6828060.jpg?r=1774618962662\" alt=\"Tonali remains under contract with the Magpies until summer 2028\" title=\"Tonali remains under contract with the Magpies until summer 2028\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"newsCaption\">Tonali remains under contract with the Magpies until summer 2028 <span class=\"caption\">(Image: Getty)<\/span><span class=\"magnifier\" data-img=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/1200x712\/secondary\/sandro-tonali-of-italy-celebrates-after-scoring-first-goal-during-the-uefa-world-cup-6828060.jpg?r=1774618962662\"\/><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Howe is understood to have a similarly bleak view of reports linking Tonali with the Red Devils.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Newcastle have not made any offers for any players ahead of the summer transfer window, and it is claimed there are no arrangements in place for players to leave if they fail to qualify for Europe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Tonali revealed earlier this month that he would like to consider joining Newcastle&#8217;s leadership group next season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Asked if he wants to fill the void left by head coach Jamal Lascelles next season, Tonali told beIN SPORTS: &#8220;Yeah, definitely. We&#8217;re a little different because Jamal was a great leader.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>\u201cHe spoke to our team, all the players, every week, every game. He was great with everyone, he was alone in private meetings, but he was a little different than me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;It might be a little difficult because it&#8217;s not my native language, but I&#8217;ll do my best. I&#8217;ll give it my all. I try to help every player on the pitch.
