Footage of AC Milan’s training ground explains Tonali’s girlfriend's reaction to Newcastle's

Newcastle fans have dug up footgae of AC Milan's training ground which explains Sandro Tonali's girlfriend, Juliette Pastore's reaction to Newcastle's dining area.

Tonali completed his £55 million move to St James' Park from AC Milan on Wednesday, and was given a tour of the Newcastle's transformed state of the art training facility alongside his partner.

Over the last few months, 'the Benton' has undergone an "extensive" renovation, with the addition of hydrotherapy and plunge pools, improved changing rooms and an updated presentation room.

A modern players' lounge and a brand new dining area have also been introduced, which certainly had an impression on Pastore, who was left open-mouthed by the grand space.

However, images of the AC Milan players' dining room have since emerged which perhaps puts her reaction into context.

"Now I understand," one user wrote.

"Lool looks like some backdoor Italian restaurant," another added.

"Their whole training ground is underwhelming, I always thought Italy had facilities as good as England's but I suppose no," a third said."

"For a club as big as Milan, this is disgraceful," a fourth added.

Back in April, Newcastle co-owner Amanda Staveley confirmed that the club had plans to build a new training ground.

"We can do things that we couldn't do 10 years ago," Staveley said at MIPIM. "We're looking at developing a new training ground at the moment.

"I remember when Eddie came and we had to put investment into our current training ground because it just wasn't fit for purpose. We were trying to put all the cameras around the outside. I was thinking, 'God, this is going to cost a fortune'.

"It was like £800,000 of investment just into the cameras. Then, suddenly, no, drones. We will do it all by drones."

Back in 2021, shortly after Newcastle's £300m takeover was completed, Staveley described the club's training facilities as "really awful".
