Scouting Report: Sandro Tonali

Since being promoted to Italy's top flight last year, Brescia have struggled to make the step up in Serie A, with Le Rondinelle currently bottom of the table, sitting nine points away from safety. However, despite their woes, they have the most exciting young midfielder in Italy: Sandro Tonali.

The young Italian was a crucial part of Brescia's promotion campaign and has been the shining light for them in a dismal 2019/20 season. Tonali is among the first names on the team sheet, featuring in all but two of the club's Serie A encounters this season. 

Operating at the base of midfield as the Lombardy side's regista, the 20-year-old dictates play and is not afraid to take risks with the ball at his feet. In many ways, the Biancazzurri’s play flows entirely through Tonali.
