Chelsea firming up plans for Brentford striker Toney

Chelsea are said to be weighing up making a big-money offer to Brentford for Ivan Toney.

The centre forward will be eligible to play competitive games from mid-January, after his betting ban expires.

Toney is already back in training with his Bees teammates, but his eight-month playing ban is still running.

Per football.london, Chelsea are ready to splash the cash on Toney to boost their front line.

The striker is also wanted by Arsenal and Manchester United, with Brentford eager to start a bidding war.

For his part, Toney may yet decide to stay until the summer, given how Brentford have supported him through his ban.
