Toney talk

Chris Sutton reckons Ivan Toney would be a good fit in Erik ten Hag’s squad.

The Scot told The BBC: “Manchester United are strikerless at this moment in time, he (Ivan Toney) would be a good fit there.

“He has proven himself in the Premier League and he has all the attributes.

“His link-up, his physicality, set-piece [ability] and his all-round play have developed really well. At this stage of his career, I think Saudi is a no-no.

“You can have all the money in the world but this is Ivan Toney at his peak and I would like to see him stay in the Premier League… I would [only] go to Saudi Arabia when I was 35 and past it.

“That doesn’t mean he can’t go to Saudi and then come back to the Premier League, but why doesn’t he just wait another season and then get a move?

“He’s 28, his career was flourishing then he had the ban, but then he had the high of the Euros this summer.

“He is in a really good place at the moment. From Brentford’s point of view, at £50m, you can understand why they would sell him for that amount with a year left on his contract.”
