De Zerbi’s Football Resonates With Me Deeply – Tonali

New Tottenham signing Sandro Tonali has opened up on the reasoning behind his decision to snub Manchester City. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

Revealing that Roberto De Zerbi’s influence impacted his move to Spurs, Tonali disclosed that he feels the Tottenham project is the right fit for the next stage of his football career.

Sandro added that the way the former Brighton manager sees football resonates with him completely.

His words, “Roberto De Zerbi was a huge factor. I have followed his work for a long time, and the way he sees football is something that resonates with me deeply. When I spoke to him, I knew this was where I wanted to be.

It was a life choice with my family because we’ve been in Newcastle for the last three years, and last year, our life changed because our child was born.

So we decided to change our life a bit, and De Zerbi made a big difference. He did his job and did it very well. He did it not only as a Brescia native and a friend but also by truly demonstrating that he has a lot of work behind him and he’s committed to it.

Newcastle wanted the best for me, and we wanted the best deal for them, so I think once you go like this, it is different. So we’re all happy, and I’m ready for the new challenge.”
