Is the transfer saga finally over?

Ivan Toney has reportedly agreed a deal with a new club, as per journalist Ben Jacobs.

The Brentford striker has yet to feature for the Bees in the Premier League this season, with Thomas Frank straight to the point when questioned on future speculation.

Now, it has been reported that the player has said “yes” to a new club after a long time of speculation about different clubs.

West Ham United were the club most consistently linked in England, however, Toney could soon be moving to the Saudi league.

Toney has reportedly agreed a deal with Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Ahli, with a financial deal worth close to €60m over three years.

Al-Ahli had asked for an answer on Monday and the player’s decision has now been made.

The Saudi club are now trying to reach an agreement with Brentford after seeing a bid of up to €40m with add-ons turned down.

As of Tuesday morning, Al-Ahli are the only club directly in talks with the Bees.

They are prepared to pay £42m with the West London club wanting £50m.
