  • Tonali had a difficult start to Newcastle journey
  • Joined the Magpies from AC Milan in the summer
  • Scored on his debut for his new club

WHAT HAPPENED? Despite scoring on his debut for the Magpies after a club record 60 million ($75m) move from Milan, Tonali admits he had difficulties settling into a new environment and that he felt "lost". The Italian midfielder has thanked his team-mates and manager Eddie Howe for helping him adjust to English conditions after his two year spell in Serie A with Milan.

WHAT THEY SAID: Speaking to reporters ahead of facing his former club in Newcastle' first Champions League group stage match of 2023-24, Tonali said: "This summer has been hard and Ive had a difficult start. In the beginning, it was not easy to find my place in Newcastle but people have supported me and still helping me now. Since the first match, I felt at ease. I was happier thanks to the help of Mr Howe and the whole staff.
