What Newcastle United Can Expect for Tonali and Guimarães This Summer.

The summer of 2026 is shaping up to be one of the most defining transfer windows in the modern history of Newcastle United. After a season that promised so much but ultimately delivered inconsistency, injuries, and a damaging early exit from the UEFA Champions League knockout rounds, the club now faces a harsh and unavoidable reality: without Champions League qualification, retaining elite talent becomes exponentially more difficult. At the center of this looming storm are two of the club’s most valuable and influential players—Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimarães—whose futures are now under intense scrutiny. For Newcastle fans, executives, and manager Eddie Howe, this summer could define the trajectory of the club for years to come. Newcastle’s 2025/26 campaign has been a paradox of progress and frustration. On paper, the squad is stronger than ever, boasting a midfield widely considered among the best in Europe. Yet results have failed to match expectations. A ninth-place finish in the ...

Van Nistelrooy has agreed to become the new manager of Leicester.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is likely to become Leicester City's new manager, succeeding Steve Cooper.


Van Nistelrooy has agreed to take over at the King Power Stadium following Cooper's dismissal this week.

Leicester are 16th in the Premier League rankings, having won only twice since their promotion back to the top division. The Foxes have now turned to Van Nistelrooy, who has been looking for work in England since leaving Manchester United.

The 48-year-old returned to Manchester United this summer as Erik ten Hag's assistant. He was recruited back to work with his compatriot at Old Trafford after scoring 150 goals in 219 games for the Red Devils during his five-season playing career.

Following Ten Hag's dismissal last month, Van Nistelrooy took over on an interim basis and guided the team to a four-game winning streak. His tenure as interim manager featured victories over Leicester in the Carabao Cup and Premier League.

However, it was determined that he would quit his position with the arrival of Ruben Amorim from Sporting Lisbon and his coaching team.

Leicester are now set to give Van Nistelrooy a chance to return to senior management in the Premier League. The Dutchman formerly coached PSV Eindhoven in the 2022/23 season, winning the KNVB Cup and Johan Cruyff Shield. He departed PSV before the end of his first season as manager, alleging a lack of board support.
