Arsenal receives boost as Ivan Toney prioritizes Arsenal move over Real Madrid
Ivan Toney has expressed a strong preference for a move to Arsenal over Real Madrid ahead of the January transfer window.
Despite his absence, the Brentford striker remains in high demand, with Chelsea also interested.
TEAMtalk reports that Arsenal has identified Toney as their primary target for the upcoming transfer window.
Toney has decided to reject Real Madrid and Mauricio Pochettino’s side, preferring a transfer to Arsenal next month.
The Gunners’ path to obtaining Toney’s services, however, will be difficult. Brentford is seemingly willing to receive £80 million for the striker, providing a significant financial obstacle for Arsenal.
Even if the price is reduced through discussions, a large sum is predicted considering Thomas Frank’s team’s reluctance to part ways with its star player.
Despite probable financial constraints, Toney’s presence at Arsenal might be a game changer. The ‘world-class’ striker has done well in the Premier League and is regarded as an important addition to the club.
Arsenal, which has made major investments in recent years, may have financial difficulties in securing Toney’s signature.
The January transfer window promises to be an exciting period for both the club and its supporters, given the players’ ambition to don the Arsenal uniform.
