Tottenham in pole position to beat Arsenal to £50m ace as Newcastle ‘reach agreement’ for Bournemouth man
All of the latest Premier League transfer news, including updates from Tottenham and Newcastle
After a surprisingly quiet January transfer window, many fans are expecting to see plenty of movement in the summer as Premier League sides look to fill key gaps in their squads.
Tottenham’s most notable gap comes in the centre forward position and although Son Heung-Min has performed well in the absence of Harry Kane, it is still clear that Spurs are in desperate need of a clinical centre forward to take them to the next level.
Ange Postecogolou has successfully helped the team climb back into some form of European football, be that the Champions League or the Europa League this term, but he has insisted that ‘change has to happen this summer’ if the club is to achieve its long term goals.
Football Insider understands that the changes will be kickstarted by a statement move for Brentford and England forward Ivan Toney
The 28-year-old has been a prolific goalscorer in recent years and notably scored 20 goals in 33 appearances for Brentford last season to spearhead the club to their highest ever Premier League finish.
Toney’s track record since 2018 is sensational and he has been a clinical finisher for the likes of Peterborough and Brentford in recent times.
