BREAKING: Ivan Toney Left Out of Brentford Squad as Shock Club Enters Talks
Ivan Toney’s future at Brentford is shrouded in uncertainty after he was omitted from the team’s Premier League opener against Crystal Palace. The striker’s shock exclusion has sparked rumors of a potential transfer, with Saudi Pro League club Al-Ahli reportedly entering talks to sign the Englishman.
According to GiveMeSport correspondent Ben Jacobs, Toney is demanding a salary of over €20 million to make the move to Saudi Arabia. Brentford manager Thomas Frank refused to comment on the specifics of the situation, stating only that "a lot of things are going on with Ivan" and that "there is interest, but a deal is not closed."
Toney’s omission from the squad comes as a surprise, given his impressive form for the Bees last season. The 26-year-old scored 12 goals in 38 appearances, helping Brentford secure a 13th-place finish in the Premier League.
The striker’s potential departure could be a significant blow to Brentford’s chances of improving on last season’s finish. However, it’s clear that the club is willing to cash in on Toney’s talent if the right offer comes along.
