Newcastle United ready for a PSR boost as Tottenham Hotspur ‘sign agreement’ with £65 million striker.

Newcastle United ready for a PSR boost ast tottenham hotspur ‘sign agreement’ with £65 million striker.

Former Newcastle United striker Ivan Toney could be on the move from Brentford this summer. The 28-year-old striker has been subject to serious transfer interest from some of the Premier League’s top clubs.

Toney is currently away with England at Euro 2024 having scored 72 goals in 141 games for Brentford since his arrival from Peterborough United in 2020.

 

Tottenham Hotspur have been credited with an interest in Toney and have reportedly submitted a formal proposal to sign the Brentford striker.

According to Football Transfers, Spurs have agreed personal terms with the player but have seen a £40million offer rejected by Brentford, who want £65million.

Toney is expected to move this summer, with Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United all reportedly interested. Newcastle, Toney’s former club, was also linked with a move for the player, but their interest has since cooled.

Nonetheless, Newcastle could make a tiny profit if Toney is moved this summer. Sky Sports earlier stated that Newcastle will get 9% of Toney’s transfer price as part of a sell-on agreement with Peterborough.

On that premise, if Newcastle sold Toney for £65 million, the club would profit by £5.85 million.

However, Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony has challenged the figures, calling them ‘total disinformation’.

Newcastle have already received approximately £3 million from Peterborough’s sale of Toney to Brentford for £10 million, and they are believed to be entitled to an additional sell-on percentage if the player is sold again.

Any sale would be a minor but welcome boost for Newcastle as the club strives to adhere to Premier League profitability and sustainability standards.

Toney made only four appearances for Newcastle in the 2015-16 season before going on loan and eventually moving to Peterborough for £1 million in 2018.
