'You never know': Manager hints at £40m forward moving on with Tottenham the most likely to sign him

Tottenham could just been given a huge boost in their quest to sign a new striker after his manager admitted a summer move is likely.

Spurs are looking to strengthen their squad in the next week weeks after already signing Archie Gray and a new forward is thought to feature high on their list.

With Brazilian striker Richarlison also being linked with a move away from Tottenham, there could be a chance for a new number nine to come in and make a big statement.

Of course, Tottenham are likely to have to spend big to land a player who suits the role.

However, one man who could tick the boxes for Spurs is Brentford and England striker, Ivan Toney.

And according to his manager, Thomas Frank, there’s a chance the forward does indeed move on.

Speaking to Sky Sports about what the future might hold for Toney, Frank admitted that anything could happen when it comes to the England striker.

“You never know! He’s a Brentford player and I would love him to stay. It would give me a very positive challenge,” Frank said.

“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.”

Tottenham are said to be the most likely English club to sign Toney as it stands.

Arsenal, too, have also been linked with a move for the Englishman, while it’s also been suggested Manchester United are in the mix for Toney as well.
