Overview

• Newcastle United's Sandro Tonali, formerly of AC Milan, faces an investigation for multiple breaches of gambling rules, which could lead to a ban until the end of 2024.
• Despite the looming ban, Tonali received tremendous support from Newcastle fans during his potentially last game, including a standing ovation and cheers from the crowd.
• Newcastle's management, including head coach Eddie Howe, has unequivocally shown their support for Tonali, acknowledging his emotional struggles and praising fans for their positive response.
• Newcastle won the highlighted game against Crystal Palace even as Tonali's future remains uncertain, moving up to the fifth rank in the Premier League. Goals were scored by Jacob Murphy, Anthony Gordon, Sean Longstaff, and Callum Wilson.
• Although bought for more than £53 million, making him the second most expensive player in the club's history, Tonali could leave a huge gap in the team due to his potential absence. His troubles arise just four months after signing for the club.
