As Chelsea prepare for the largest sport of their season to this point this night within the quarter remaining of the League Cup, many ideas now will even be on the January switch window to assist increase their season.
As we all know, Chelsea have been potential new strikers for subsequent month, however they look like few and much between.
In addition to that although, a few of the targets being linked are simply not gettable subsequent month.
Victor Osimhen seems inconceivable till the summer time, and Viktor Gyokeres has a launch clause price over £85m and can also be comparatively unproven.
So for me that solely leaves one choice, and he IS gettable subsequent month – Ivan Toney of Brentford.
Don’t take my phrase for it that he’s gettable, take the phrase of the membership’s technical director, Lee Dykes.
“I’m so excited for Ivan to return again as a result of I see him on the market in coaching and he’s some participant; it seems like he’s by no means been away,” Dykes instructed the membership web site.
“There’s an actual ambition from him and I can see in his eyes that he’s going to be higher than he’s ever been; I actually consider that would be the case.
“Sure, there will likely be a number of curiosity in Ivan in January. Naturally, there ought to be. He was the third-highest Premier League goalscorer final season – one among them [Harry Kane] has gone to Germany now, so he’s up there as top-of-the-line strikers within the division. He’s within the prime 5 on the earth, for my part.
“So there ought to be curiosity, and perhaps the time comes very shortly that Ivan strikes on to a different membership. However they should pay an honest switch payment to accumulate his providers as a result of he’s some expertise.”
I imply, he’s actually placing Toney on the switch market subsequent month with these feedback. He’s properly and really accessible, and Sykes is actually making an attempt to drum up curiosity and begin a bidding battle for his participant.
Toney for me has all the time been my first selection choice purely as a result of he has Premier League expertise, has been a membership captain, is an England worldwide, and is without doubt one of the solely all spherical true quantity 9’s accessible proper now.
If I used to be Chelsea, I might be straight on the telephone to Dykes now asking what it might take to get Toney over to Stamford Bridge subsequent month.
He’s the whole lot Chelsea wants proper now, and we ought to be throughout it.
