Brentford finally makes an Ivan Toney decision that will delight Arsenal fans
Arsenal is said to be expressing interest in acquiring the services of Ivan Toney, the striker for Brentford, as he approaches a return to competitive football.
Toney, having gained recognition as one of the standout strikers in the Premier League following Brentford’s promotion, faced a setback last summer when he was potentially considering a departure due to a ban related to betting offenses. This ban resulted in him missing the first half of the current season.
In an effort to address their scoring challenges, Arsenal is eager to add Toney to their squad and has placed him high on their list of potential targets, according to a report from The Sun.
Concurrently, Brentford is reportedly eyeing Santiago Castro, a 19-year-old striker from Velez Sarsfield, as a replacement for Toney.

The club views Castro as an ideal successor to Toney and is open to selling Toney if they can secure the promising young Argentine striker.
Toney stands out as one of the top strikers on our list of potential acquisitions, and his addition to our team could significantly boost our goal-scoring capabilities.
However, it’s imperative that we exercise patience and wait for Brentford to be ready for the sale. Jumping the gun could result in inflated costs, so timing is crucial to ensure a reasonable deal for his transfer.
