England forward may still leave Brentford this summer
Brentford forward Ivan Toney has attracted interest from clubs in the Saudi Pro League. This has been reported by renowned insider Fabrizio Romano. The 28-year-old Englishman is noted as a key target among the strikers being considered by local teams.
Al-Ahli showed particular interest in Toney earlier this winter and he remains on the club's shortlist. The player has not yet made a final decision about his future and is weighing the offers he has received.
Interestingly, interest from top English clubs has noticeably declined since the European Championship, with potential buyers deterred by the player's price. Brentford has lowered its demands, reducing the price nearly by half, but has yet to receive offers from prominent clubs.
Last season, Toney scored 4 goals and provided 2 assists in 17 matches. It’s worth noting that the forward returned to football only in the winter after serving a suspension due to betting issues.
