The £60 million striker is still perhaps the most sought-after player in the division, even if he hasn’t played a single minute of Premier League football this year.
Toney has been extensively linked to teams like Chelsea and Arsenal, who have previously been mentioned as the favorites to sign him. Tottenham, on the other hand, is still presumably searching for a replacement for Harry Kane.
Danny Murphy, meanwhile, said on Five that he doesn’t believe Toney will end up moving to Tottenham.
Tottenham won’t get Toney.
Murphy delivered his assessment of the striker and his future plans.
“In my opinion, we should pursue Ivan Toney. The presenter remarked, “I am praying week in and week out that Nketiah keeps scoring because Arsenal will show their loyalty there, and then it’s up to us and Spurs to get him.”
Murphy stated, “I don’t think the Spurs will be in for him.”
Fit for the Spurs
Murphy is certain that Toney won’t sign with Tottenham, but we have our doubts.
In fact, although Spurs have traditionally had trouble competing with teams like Arsenal and Chelsea for high-profile recruits, things may be gradually changing.
Let’s face it, Tottenham is among the greatest teams in the Premier League right now. Arsenal may argue that they are a more desirable destination, but Chelsea are not on the same level as them right now.
Although we have our concerns, Murphy is positive that Toney will not join Tottenham.
Actually, things might be slowly improving for Spurs, even if they have historically had difficulty competing with teams like Arsenal and Chelsea for high-profile recruits.
Tottenham is, let’s be honest, one of the best teams in the Premier League at the moment. Chelsea are now not at the same level as Arsenal, despite their claims that they are a more desirable destination.
