Ange Postecoglou’s outfit are now gearing up to make the Bees an offer of £40 million for Toney, who scored four goals in 17 Premier League games after returning from a suspension that prevented him from featuring in the first half of the season.
FootballTransfers exclusively broke the news that Spurs were looking at Toney as a candidate for the position last July and they are now set to review the deal in what is being seen as a cut-price move
Toney was initially given a £100m bid for the Brentford chief, hoping to avoid potential bids from Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal in the January transfer window
Ivan Toney 28, returned in January from his eight month suspension, for having breached Football Association gambling rules. Brentford were able to hang on to him in the January transfer window, but that won’t likely happen again this summer.
And the London club will likely want to sell Ivan Toney this summer, or they’ll risk losing him for free in summer of 2025, given that his contract expires at the end of this season.
While Tottenham Hotspur are interested, so are West Ham, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United (with Erik ten Hag now staying, Toney is on their summer transfer shopping list)
So Ivan Toney is in high demand, with three other clubs in London alone also on the list
The auction is expected to start at around £80 million, but of course the more interested parties there are, the higher the potential hammer price
Next we turn to Conor Gallagher, 24, who has just one year left on his Chelsea deal. The southwest London club will sell him for the best offer, if the stellar midfielder doesn’t signa new deal.
They don’t want to risk their homegrown English international leaving next summer as a free agent; meanwhile Chelsea would get nothing in return.
Gallagher is expected to have a valuation of about £50m in this market, and any move will most likely have to wait until after he gets back from international duty with England at Euro 2024.
Despite the fact that then manager Mauricio Pochettino truly favored Gallagher for selection on his team sheet, he has been expected to leave for quite some time.
While both Tottenham and Aston Villa are interested, the Villans have one distinct advantage:
