Chelsea is currently exploring options to bolster their striking options, notably pondering a move for Brentford's Ivan Toney as the transfer deadline looms. Their failure to finalize discussions with Napoli over Victor Osimhen has prompted this reconsideration. Although Toney's price is set at £50 million, Chelsea's initial offer is expected to fall considerably short yet still adheres to Toney's wage expectations. The club is also engaged in talks with Manchester United regarding a swap deal involving Raheem Sterling and Jadon Sancho.
Brentford's Ivan Toney has become a focal point for Chelsea as they search for striker solutions. He has been absent from two consecutive matchday squads following Brentford's refusal of a £35 million bid. Despite a lucrative offer from a Saudi club that could potentially net him £16 million annually, Toney has expressed a preference to remain in the Premier League. As his contract nears its end, the urgency within Chelsea to secure him is evident. However, Brentford seeks £50 million for Toney, further complicating negotiations.
