TOP STORY: Man Utd look to Toney
Manchester United are one of the clubs keeping close tabs on Brentford striker Ivan Toney, according to Calciomercato.
The Bees have recently been reported to have been in contract talks with the 26-year-old striker, who has begun to attract interest from other clubs in the Premier League with his performances. He has contributed to eight goals in nine games so far this season, while being named in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the Nations League clashes against Germany and Italy in September.
As uncertainty looms over the future of Cristiano Ronaldo, it looks as though the Old Trafford hierarchy have identified Toney as a potential option in January, though they will need to contest for his signature against Newcastle United, West Ham United and Leeds United, who are all also understood to be watching his situation.
Toney’s current contract at the Community Stadium isn’t set to expire until the summer of 2025, but Thomas Frank’s side are hopeful that they can convince him to stay at the club with a deal that reflects his performances in England’s top flight.
