Newcastle United sporting director Dan Ashworth has opened up about the suspension of summer signing Sandro Tonali, whi has been sidelined until the start of next season
Newcastle chief Dan Ashworth has admitted Sandro Tonali's Magpies move is the subject of a full internal club probe - and all legal options remain on the table.
Ashworth spoke out today to address the tough questions the scandal has thrown up and said: “‘It was a massive shock, a massive surprise. Dealing with it was new to all of us. It came from nowhere.” Then asked if Tonali’s wages could be cut and if he breached any misconduct clauses in his contract, Ashworth added: “Any player’s contract situation is private and confidential.
Ashworth was then grilled on whether he would still sign Tonali. He replied: “I think if you know a player's going to be out for 10 months whether that's through a medical injury or through something like this, you'd either have to look at the deal again or structure the deal in a different manner.
