Toney’s Transfer Saga: The Race for the English Striker
It seems that Ivan Toney is determined to leave Brentford in search of greener pastures. The English striker is considering a move in the upcoming transfer window or in 2025 when his contract with The Bees expires.
The more likely scenario is Toney’s transfer in the summer window, as Brentford would benefit from a substantial cash injection for their player. The club values the English striker at around £50 million, although the price could increase if Toney performs well at EURO 2024.
According to 90min.com, Manchester United is one of the clubs keen on having Toney in their squad. The Red Devils believe that the 28-year-old would bring “experience and leadership” to the team. Arsenal and Chelsea are also keeping an eye on Brentford’s striker.
Manchester United is looking to bring in a striker to support Rasmus Hojlund after the season ends. Toney is not the only player on the Red Devils’ wish list; Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig is also a target. The competition for the 20-year-old Slovenian could be much fiercer in the summer than for Toney.
