Eddie Howe's team news update: Tonali 'potentially' available for Fulham trip The Italian midfielder was withdrawn early in the second half of the Magpies' 3-1 win over West Ham United at St. James' Park last weekend. But head coach Howe is hopeful the 26-year-old will be fit enough to play a part at Craven Cottage as United bring the curtain down on the 2025/26 campaign.
Here are some of the main talking points from his pre-match media briefing on Friday morning: On Tonali's fitness... "Sandro, potentially, will be available. We will look at him again today.
We don’t think it is anything serious. " On the Fulham game... "We hope to continue the upturn in our recent performances, upturn in our in-possession play, we want to end the season high, it is an important match for us.
" On last weekend's win over the Hammers... "It was great to win our last home game. That left us all with a great feeling.
We want to end the season on a real high. " On Will Osula's potential... "He is at a really good age, lots of things to continue to work on, there are lots of untapped areas we can develop.
