Toney transfer update from Fabrizio Romano

Transfer news expert Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the situation around Brentford striker Ivan Toney amid long-running links with the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea.

The England international made a lot of headlines back in January when it looked like he could be the subject of various big-money bids, but nothing ever materialised and his recent form hasn’t been the best.

Speaking exclusively to CaughtOffside for the latest edition of his Daily Briefing column, Romano made it clear that Arsenal and Chelsea never actually made any bids for Toney back in January, while it also seems the 28-year-old’s situation is quiet now.

It remains to be seen if things might change between now and the summer, but it certainly seems that Toney’s future remains somewhat up in the air, with the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea perhaps no longer viewing him as a top priority.

Romano also mentioned that Arsenal remain keen to sign a top striker this summer, but he singled out Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko as names to watch, while adding that Eddie Nketiah could leave, rather than Gabriel Jesus.

“Arsenal want to bring in a new striker in the summer, and I’ve previously told you about their appreciation of players like Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko. We also have to remember that they like Alexander Isak at Newcastle, though that would be a complicated one.
