The Red Devils are reportedly scouring the market for a proven center-forward and they have identified Toney as a person of interest.<\/p>\n<h2>Manchester United Contemplating Shock Move For Ivan Toney<\/h2>\n<p>Erik ten Hag&#8217;s side opened the 2024-25 summer transfer window in explosive fashion, signing sought-after young center-forward Joshua Zirkzee from Serie A side Bologna in a \u20ac42.5 million ($46.4 million) deal. The club wanted the Netherlands international to learn the ropes while last-season signing Rasmus Hojlund led the attack. However, with the Danish striker ruled out until September after suffering an injury in pre-season, Man Utd is lacking a Premier League-hardened strike option.<\/p>\n<p>According to Football Insider, Ten Hag does not want to begin the 2024-25 campaign without a senior striker and is pushing to sign a suitable candidate before the summer transfer window slams shut. The hunt for a proven striker has led the club to Brentford&#8217;s Toney, who is available for a discounted price this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Since the 28-year-old is in the final year of his contract, the Bees are willing to let him go for around \u00a350 million ($63.84 million) \u2014 \u00a330 million ($38.31 million) lower than what they were asking for him in January.<\/p>\n<h2>Arsenal Has Long Been Linked With Ivan Toney<\/h2>\n<p>United&#8217;s sudden interest in Toney is not good news for his long-time admirers Arsenal, who are also in the market for a formidable striker.<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners&#8217; two natural strikers, Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah, contributed with a combined total of nine goals across the 2023-24 Premier League season, which is poor for <a href=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/news\/score-25-goals-paul-scholes-arsenal-premier-league\/\">a team fighting for the title<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Nketiah is reportedly on the chopping block and should exit the club in the coming days. This would make room for a more clinical striker to slide into Arsenal&#8217;s squad. With Chelsea supposedly in advanced talks with Victor Osimhen, Toney is the likeliest candidate to occupy Nketiah&#8217;s spot.<\/p>\n<p>Toney has been in blistering form since Brentford won the promotion to the Premier League in the 2021-22 season. In 85 Premier League games so far, the England international has scored 36 goals and provided 11 assists. He was at his very best in the 2022-23 campaign, with him scoring 20 times in 33 league matches for Brentford.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/\">Sportslens.com &#8211; NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB News, Rumors &amp; Betting Picks<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/news\/manchester-united-move-arsenal-target\/\">Report: Manchester United Plotting Late Move For Long-Time Arsenal Target<\/a> &#8211; originally posted on <a href=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/\">Sportslens.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Record 20-time English champions Manchester United are reportedly plotting a late move for long-time Arsenal target Ivan Toney.
