Manchester United could yet be tempted by a loan deal for Brentford forward Ivan Toney.The Bees have stood firm so far this summer, and require £60million to part ways with their star striker. The England international has less than a year on his contract and has shown no desire to extend his stay at the G-tech Stadium. No club has yet proved willing to meet that figure, with the possibility that patience could not prove beneficial for any suitor. At 28, Toney is an older forward that clubs such as Manchester United and Chelsea would not ideally target, though they have been interested in the striker, along with Arsenal. The Independent report that the Old Trafford side, like Chelsea, are willing to wait until nearer the end of the transfer window to potentially make a move. It is ex...
