As the transfer deadline looms, Saudi Pro-League side Al-Ahli has reportedly reached an agreement with Brentford striker Ivan Toney, confirming the player’s imminent move to the Saudi club.
According to recent reports, Al-Ahli has finalized terms with both Brentford and Toney, marking a significant development in the transfer market. This move comes on the heels of Al-Ahli’s successful acquisition of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, another top target for Chelsea.
The Mirror has confirmed that the Saudi club is set to secure Toney’s signature, potentially concluding a prolonged transfer saga that had seen the forward linked with other major European clubs, including Manchester United and Chelsea.
Ivan Toney, who has been with Brentford for the past four years following his transfer from Peterborough United, had expressed his desire to leave the club this summer. The agreement with Al-Ahli represents a pivotal moment for both the player and the club, as Toney prepares for a new chapter in the Saudi Pro-League.
This latest development underscores Al-Ahli’s aggressive pursuit of high-profile talent, enhancing their squad with Toney’s proven goal-scoring capabilities as the transfer window draws to a close.
