Tottenham urged to sign Ivan Toney to challenge for PL title
Frank McAvennie has told West Ham to “go and get” Ivan Toney after Brentford decided to slash the striker’s price this summer.
The Hammers are one of the most likely suitors for the England international, according to The Sun, with Brentford now setting the price tag at £50million due to the lack of interest.
The Australian was tasked with turning a team that looked lost under Antonio Conte into one that played entertaining football and genuinely challenged the big boys once again – oh, and he had to do it without Harry Kane.However, to improve further next season, the club now need to back him in the transfer market and bring him the new number nine he is reportedly desperate for.There have been numerous links to top strikers over the last couple of months, but perhaps none more than Brentford’s Ivan Toney, who could be a transformational acquisition.
However, while the Englishman would likely be incredible for the Lilywhites, it’s unlikely that his valuation will surpass that of one of his potential new teammates.
The latetst on Toney to Spur According to reports from earlier this week, the two clubs most likely to land Toney’s signature at the moment are Tottenham and West Ham United, and with the latter looking at other options as well, the North Londoners have become favourites.
Moreover, according to a report from talkSPORT (via the Spurs Web), the Englishman is actively hoping that the North Londoners will come in with an offer for him this summer.
Now, what that offer ends up being remains to be seen, but it’s unlikely to be in excess of £50m as the Sun reported last week that the Bees had reduced their asking price to below that figure as they look to avoid losing him for free next summer
