Man Utd also remain interested in the 21-year-old and are considering whether to make a bid themselves.

United are previously understood to have valued the ex-Southampton player at around £60m, but may be prepared to offer more as they watch developments with other clubs closely.

The latest on the battle to sign Tonali

Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi is being ambitious with his midfield plans this summer.

They have already had a bid rejected by Newcastle for Sandro Tonali, worth almost £80m.

It remains to be seen if they return with another offer for him - and whether the club are trying to sign both the Italy international and Fernandes, or just one.

Manchester City also remain interested in Tonali regardless of their ongoing pursuit of Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, while Arsenal have looked at the 26-year-old too.

Man Utd and Arsenal make Scott enquiries

Meanwhile, Man Utd, Arsenal and Tottenham are also keen on Bournemouth midfielder Scott.

United and Arsenal are both believed to have made an initial inquiry to Bournemouth, but the Cherries have made it clear they do not want to sell the 22-year-old.

Talks have been held about a new contract for the ex-Bristol City player, as the south-coast side hope Scott, who just missed out on the England World Cup squad, will continue under new boss Marco Rose.

Nevertheless, Scott remains in the mix of targets at the biggest clubs that want to sign a new midfielder this summer, and it remains to be seen if one of them comes in with a bid.
