Ivan Toney 'excited' about joining Arsenal in January

Chelsea are also heavily interested in signing Ivan Toney

Ivan Toney is reportedly ‘enthusiastic’ about possibly joining Arsenal, as the north London team is the front-runner for bringing in the forward in the January transfer window.

Since the summer transfer window, there has been intense competition over the future of the Brentford star, who hasn’t played in an exciting league since May due to an eight-month ban for betting violations.

Many teams have expressed interest in signing Toney because of his impressive Premier League performance, especially the Gunners and Chelsea, their rivals in London.

The team led by Mauricio Pochettino is in dire need of offensive potency and is rumoured to be giving priority to forward hires when they join the market.

A former Spurs player, Teddy Sheringham has urged Ange Postecoglou to think about beating the other clubs in north London for the youngster’s transfer. Tottenham may also make an offer for the teenager.

However, if Toney directs his goal elsewhere, they might need to look for other choices, according to transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano.
