Ivan Toney Joins Al-Ahli for £40 Million

Brentford striker Ivan Toney has completed a £40 million transfer to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli, despite interest from Premier League clubs like Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United. Toney, who joined Brentford in 2020 and scored 72 goals in 141 games, was seen supporting his former team at the Gtech Community Stadium just hours after the deal was announced. Al-Ahli also considered signing Victor Osimhen from Napoli but chose Toney due to financial constraints. Meanwhile, Arsenal are in last-minute talks to secure a loan deal for Chelsea forward Raheem Sterling, who has not played for Chelsea this season and is part of their 'bomb squad'. Talks with Manchester United for Sterling have faded, and he is likely to move to Arsenal to reunite with former coach Mikel Arteta.
