Chelsea has made a late attempt to sign Brentford striker Ivan Toney, aiming to hijack his potential move to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli.
Toney had reportedly agreed to join Al-Ahli, but Chelsea has entered the race after their deal for Napoli’s Victor Osimhen stalled due to wage demands.
With Toney in the final year of his Brentford contract and linked with a move away, Chelsea sees an opportunity to secure his services before the transfer window closes.
Brentford manager Thomas Frank has acknowledged Toney’s situation, stating that due to the transfer interest, the striker has not been included in Brentford’s Premier League squads.
Despite the uncertainty, Frank praised Toney as a “top player” and noted Brentford’s ability to cope without him.
Chelsea is confident they can convince Toney to stay in the Premier League, despite the lucrative offer from Al-Ahli.
The transfer fee is expected to be reasonable, and Toney would fit into Chelsea’s wage structure.
The 28-year-old has scored 36 goals in 85 Premier League appearances for Brentford and has expressed his desire to play for a top club.
Toney has previously spoken about his ambitions, mentioning his lifelong support for Liverpool and his admiration for Arsenal and Manchester United.
He has stated his desire to play at the highest level, suggesting that if the right opportunity comes along, he would consider a move to a bigger club.
