“It is just one of the options to consider and discuss internally. As I've said here several times, Man United are still in the early stages of the process of deciding which striker they want to sign; experienced or young. “Talks will be held internally, Toney will be one of the names available on the market so could be one to watch.”
Anyway, that it has been suggested that Arsenal are also interested in signing a new striker this summer and plan to go for Toney.
Furthermore, it has been reported that Tottenham hotspur and Chelsea They are also interested in acquiring your service. Man Utd will therefore face fierce competition from rivals to secure any potential deal for him.
It has been suggested that, although Toney will only have one year left on his current contract this summer, Brentford do not want to let their star leave on the cheap and I want at least £100 million.. So Arsenal or Man Utd will have to pay a huge fee to secure his signature this summer.
Toney is a top-level player and has already demonstrated his qualities in the first division of late, so he could be a shrewd signing for Arsenal or Man Utd if either club snaps him up.
However, having already achieved Rasmus Hojlund At his disposal, the Red Devils do not need to spend the £100m fee to sign another striker this summer.
