Prior to the winter transfer window, Premier League powerhouse Arsenal has increased its interest in Ivan Toney.
Ivan Toney was suspended by the Football Association after being linked with sport betting. He will be able to resume playing after his suspension.
Arsenal and Chelsea are the two teams that have shown concrete interest on signing the Brentford and England star.
Arsenal are prepared to make an early bid as soon as the transfer window opens, according to The Mirror.
Ivan Toney has earlier mentioned he used to be an admirer of Arsenal and how they play.
“The next club I go to, if I were to move, it would be like the right club. From young, I’ve liked Arsenal. Liked watching Arsenal and how they play, how passionate the fans are.”
A striker like the seasoned Premier League scorer is something that manager Mikel Arteta wants in his team.
He has centre forwards in Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah, signed Kai Havertz for a hefty fee and salary, and sold Folarin Balogun in the summer, but he still wants to make another high-profile signing.
