Manchester United continues to work on strengthening its attack for the upcoming season, and in light of the economic difficulties in securing the signing of Bryan Mbeumo, they have swiftly turned towards a more accessible yet equally interesting option: Ivan Toney.

The 29-year-old English forward, currently playing for Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia, has caught the eye of Old Trafford's club. After a standout season in the Arabian league, where he scored 23 goals in 30 matches, Toney has once again attracted the interest of several European teams. United believes that his previous experience in the Premier League, goal-scoring ability, and physical strength make him a very valuable choice to lead the attack.

Initially, the 'Red Devils' had their sights set on Mbeumo, but Brentford is asking for around £78 million for his transfer. A figure that the United board considers excessive, especially with other areas of the team also needing reinforcement. In light of this situation, new options were explored, and Toney emerged as a clear market opportunity.

Toney already has experience in the Premier League.

Al-Ahli signed him for £42 million from Brentford when his market value was £50 million, but now, according to Transfermarkt, his price has dropped to £25 million. In this context, Manchester United has put forward an offer that could be very appealing: £30 million fixed plus £5 million in variables.

Initial contacts have already been made between the clubs and the player's representatives, and Old Trafford is optimistic about finalizing the deal in the coming days. Toney would view a return to the Premier League, especially wearing the colors of a historic club like United, very favorably.

With this move, the English team aims not only to avoid excessive spending but also to bring in a forward with experience, a hunger to compete at the elite level again, and a profile that fits the style of play intended for the upcoming season.
