“I can’t be in a train and see a jet,” Brentford’s Ivan Toney, who is worth €80 million, explained why he picked Arsenal over Chelsea. Chelsea is no longer the favourite to sign the player; our poor play this season has cost us – Ibomdailymail The Ibom Daily Mail
There is no longer a clear favourite between Chelsea and Brentford to sign Ivan Toney.
It is said by The Evening Standard that Arsenal is the favourite to sign Ivan Toney before the January transfer market opens.
The 27-year-old striker will be free to play again next month after serving his ban. He’s a well-known player because he scored 20 Premier League goals for Brentford last season.
The Ivan Toney race takes a turn
According to today’s Evening Standard, Arsenal is in the lead to sign Brentford’s forward, even though Chelsea and Tottenham are also interested.
It is said that Arsenal, who are in the running for the title, have become the centre forward’s first choice.
According to the story, Chelsea was thought to be the most likely place for the England forward to go. He will cost between £60 million and £80 million all together.
The bad play of Mauricio Pochettino’s team this season, on the other hand, has cost them ground in this deal race. The Blues also need to sell a lot of things before they can go shopping and spend a lot of money in January.
Finally, Spurs are seen as outsiders because they can’t pay what Brentford wants.
Chelsea’s play has cost them.
The Blues beat Newcastle United on penalties last night to make it to the Carabao Cup semi-finals, so there’s still time for this season to go.
There’s no getting around the fact, though, that the league record has been terrible. Chelsea is in 10th place in the league with 22 points from 17 games. Also, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Crystal Palace, and Luton Town are still games to be played in 2023 in order to try to move up the division.
We think Toney from Brentford would be a huge asset at Stamford Bridge as a top-notch No. 9. It sounds like the chances of getting him are getting smaller, which is bad.
Last month, Shaun Wright-Phillips told The Sport Review that Toney would be a “tremendous” addition to either Chelsea or Arsenal. The media are making a lot of noise about how they are in the lead right now.
