Chelsea is willing to go against Todd Boehly's transfer strategy and beat Tottenham in the race for English superstar Ivan Toney
Chelsea has a golden opportunity ahead of them, as they could sign Brentford star Ivan Toney for a major discount of millions as the star’s contract expiration comes close.
After serving an eight-month ban for violating the Football Association’s betting rules, the Bees forward did not play much, has made only 13 appearances this season, and is still scoring four goals.
However, he has established himself as a top Premier League striker at Brentford and made sure that no one takes him or his talent lightly, as he contributed fully by scoring 72 goals and providing 22 assists in 137 games.
In January, Sky Sports reported that Brentford was demanding £100 million from any interested party looking to make a move after his ban expired. However, as the 28-year-old enters the final year of his contract, his suitors are ready to strike a bargain.
According to reports, Toney has expectations of fetching between £30 million and £40 million this summer. Numerous Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, and West Ham United, are keeping tabs on the star.
Manchester United are also said to be in the running as they look to replace Anthony Martial, who will depart Old Trafford as a free agent once his contract hits expiration in July. They could really use someone like Toney.
Toney is undoubtedly one of the league’s greatest attackers, and he might prove to be a valuable addition to both clubs. Additionally, the advertised asking price appears to be pretty reasonable. The 28-year-old will be able to hit the ground running in the Premier League, as he is familiar with English football.
The 28-year-old attacker will want to compete at a higher level at this point in his career, and a move to Chelsea will be an appealing prospect for him. They have the talent and resources to contend for trophies, and England internationals will want to join them. It will be intriguing to see if the team agrees to pay the asking price for the striker at the end of the season.
