The Italian midfielder reflected on his journey with the Magpies, thanking the club, his fellow players, boss Eddie Howe, and the fanbase who stuck by him through both triumphant and tough moments alike.

The gesture has only deepened the bond between Tonali and the Toon Army, with many fans insisting the door at St. James’ Park will always remain open to him no matter where his career leads next. While he’s now embarking on a new chapter elsewhere, his emotional message guarantees that his spell on Tyneside will be fondly remembered—supporters continue to highlight the professionalism, passion, and respect he brought to every appearance in black and white.
