Ivan Toney turned his back on Manchester United to move to Saudi Arabia.
The latest developments suggest that Al Ahli in Saudi Arabia is the most promising destination for Ivan Toney.
Toney and his desire to leave Brentford
This summer, Ivan Toney made no secret of his intention to leave Brentford in search of a new challenge.
His impressive form last season has attracted the attention of many big clubs, including Manchester United. The Red Devils are looking for a true center forward to bolster their attack and Toney is considered one of their top targets.
Following rumors linking Toney to Manchester United, the club made some moves in the transfer market. They successfully signed Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta. However, Hojlund's injury forced the Red Devils to look for another striker to strengthen their attack. Joshua Zirkzee was brought in from Bayern Munich as a backup option.
Al Ahli gets involved and the latest developments.
Although Manchester United are still pursuing Toney, Al Ahli of Saudi Arabia are currently leading the race to sign the English striker. According to reliable sources, Al Ahli have reached a personal agreement with Toney and are close to finalizing the deal.
Toney's absence from the Brentford squad in recent matches has further fueled rumors of his imminent departure from Gtech Community Stadium. Brentford manager Frank has declined to comment on Toney's future, but indications suggest the player is on his way to Saudi Arabia.
