Brentford forward Ivan Toney is internationally respected as a stellar footballer.
The #17 forward for The Bees has featured in 71 Premier League games, with 34 goals, 24 wins, and 27 losses to his credit.
To Be Relegated - Brentford
At a ratio of 0.48 goals per match, with 4 headers, 27 goals with his right foot, and 3 with his left, this striker is hot property - attracting clubs near the top of Premier League odds.
Toney boasts a shooting accuracy of 40%, with 190 shots, 76 of which are on target. His team play, discipline, and defence are equally applaudable.
A physical player by nature, Toney is a transformative force for Brentford. That he managed to successfully drive home a victory – 3-2 against Nottingham Forest is yet another feather in his cap.
After eight months on the sidelines, Ivan Toney displays grit, determination, and raw talent. It is said that his ability to avoid central defenders, sneak away and find his targets are among his greatest strengths.
Ivan Toney next club odds may come as a surprise to some, with pundits scurrying to get the numbers right.
Rumour has it that the Brentford forward is expected to join Newcastle United, with odds of 3:1.
While Manchester United expressed interest in Toney, they dropped back to betting odds of 8:1 to sign Toney.
Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe is looking to shore up his team's defence and attack, and Ivan Toney fits the bill in every way.
Come the summer, football bettors are expecting Toney to ink a deal with Newcastle United and St James Park.
While a fee hasn't been publicised yet, insiders are pushing a £30 million deal to secure Toney's move. But Brentford apparently doesn't need to sell their superstar player, but they have betting odds of 9:4 for relegation this season.
| Ivan Toney Next Club Odds | Betting Odds |
|---|---|
| Newcastle United | 3/1 |
| Manchester United | 8/1 |
| Arsenal | 8/1 |
| West Ham United | 10/1 |
Based on the latest Premier League tables, a Toney move from Brentford to Newcastle United would certainly help Newcastle solidify their top 10 ranking next season.
Brentford, on the other hand, would likely slip a few places into the bottom five. There was plenty of chatter about Erik ten Hag signing Ivan Toney next season, with United keen to sign a star forward, regardless of what Cristiano Ronaldo does.
Recall that Man United's Ivan Toney next club odds are tied with those of Arsenal at 8:1. There's a slim chance of that happening in the 2024/2025 football season.
And then there's the elephant in the room for Brentford – the football club may decide to keep him, given the team's performance this season. Their relegation odds are 9:4, and his continued presence with the team will likely be a major magnet to keep him at all costs.

| 20 | Sheffield United | 23 | 2 | 4 | 17 | 19 | 59 | -40 | 10 |
The bottom five teams include Nottingham Forest, Luton Town, Everton, Burnley, and Sheffield United.
While Brentford is marginally higher, on 22 points, the cut-off team, Everton, is barely three points behind. With almost 40% of the season remaining, it's do or die for Brentford and Ivan Toney.
