Ivan Toney set to cost £50 million

Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing the Brentford striker Ivan Toney.

According to Football Insider, the North London club have now learned that they will have to pay £5 million in order to sign the 28-year-old striker.

Toney has been a proven performer in the Premier League over the years and he could prove to be a superb acquisition for the North London club.

Tottenham have missed a reliable goal scorer like him since the departure of Harry Kane. Signing the 28-year-old will certainly help them improve in the final third.

Apart from his ability to score goals, Toney can hold the ball up and bring others into the players well. He will add a new dimension to the Spurs attack.

Although the reported £50 million asking price seems quite steep, it is hardly a surprise. Brentford will look to recoup as much as possible for their best player. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham are prepared to break the bank for the England international.
