Newcastle United fans are all celebrating the arrival of Sandro Tonali in their own way and the Tynemouth Surf Cafe has gone the extra mile by launching a limited edition burger on its menu in honour of the Italian.
Tonali was announced as a Magpies player on Monday and touched down on Tyneside earlier this week after finishing international duty with the Italy Under-23 set-up. On Thursday, the star visited St James' Park for the first time as he begins to settle down in the North East.

Tonali comes with a Champions League pedigree thanks to his time with Italian giants AC Milan and will bolster Eddie Howe's midfield ahead of the side's return to European football next season.
To mark the moment, the Tynemouth Surf Cafe has made an addition to its menu by creating The Toonali, a burger inspired by the player.
The popular joint sits just opposite Tynemouth Park and overlooks Long Sands Beach. The cafe is known to be especially busy in summer as Geordies head to the coast to soak up some sun and enjoy some great grub.
