Premier League boss tells Arsenal his 20-goal goalscorer could leave this summer!
Brentford boss Thomas Frank has stayed coy over Arsenal target Ivan Toney’s future – although hinted again the Bees forward will leave the club this summer.
The transfer window is still open until the end of August and it will give Arsenal more chances to start getting some deals done that will send a statement to the rest of the Premier League for new Mikel Arteta
And the Gunners have constantly been linked with a move for the big man – but his asking price has become a problem for all the chasing clubs and that is why he has not yet left Brentford.
Toney is out of contract at the end of next season, while Igor Thiago, who may be his replacement, scored twice in their 5-2 friendly win at AFC Wimbledon this afternoon, And now Frank has admitted that the club could sell the big man.
He told Sky Sports News: “You never know! He’s a Brentford player and I would love him to stay. It would give me a very positive challenge.
“I haven’t met a coach who doesn’t want as many good players as possible. Right now, he’s a Brentford player.
“He’s enjoying his time off and I’m happy, if he’s here with us I’ll be more than happy. A 20-goal goalscorer, there’s two things in that. It’s very good to have that in your team, and it makes him expensive!
“We’ve said before, I want to keep all my players, besides maybe five or six clubs in the world we’re a selling club – and if there’s the right bid which comes in, fine.”

ARSENAL know that signing Toney would bring a different aspect to that attack for the side – he is the type of player that could make a real difference, and because he did not score too many goals last season, they could get him for a bargain, and that would be a good thing.
