Ivan Toney’s transfer price tag plummets to ‘super cheap’ figure as Arsenal and Chelsea circle
BRENTFORD are braced for frenzied interest in Ivan Toney following the striker’s new “super cheap” valuation.
It’s claimed the Bees could sell the Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal target for just £30million-£40m.
The twice-capped England striker, 28, is under contract until 2025.
And Sky Sports’ Florian Plettenberg believes West Ham are among “many” Premier League clubs now monitoring Toney’s situation.
The fee wanted for the Euro 2024 hopeful has reportedly plummeted from the £80m-£100m touted in January.
That’s when Toney returned looking sharp after an eight-month ban.
Plettenberg reckons the Hammers have already “inquired” – while Chelsea and Arsenal are “monitoring him closely”.
Meanwhile, fans shocked by Toney’s much-reduced valuation are predicting a huge fight to land him in the next transfer window.
One said, “That’s super cheap wtf” and another was equally astonished as he posted, “Only £30m-£40m?! Wow.”
A third wrote: “Man United would be sleeping if they don’t throw everything at Brentford to get him in the summer.”
And a Red Devils’ supporter urged: “Swap for Rashford I beg.”
Meanwhile, Stamford Bridge boss Mauricio Pochettino has been plagued by frontline problems all season.
And one Blues’ fan said of Toney: “Chelsea should go for him at that price.”
