Chelsea is reportedly planning a significant summer bid for Brentford striker Ivan Toney, considering him their top target for the transfer window. SunSport understands that the West London club sees Toney as the solution to their striker needs, with manager Mauricio Pochettino viewing him as a player who can elevate the team to the next level.
Brentford is said to be holding out for a fee exceeding £80 million for Toney, who has impressed since returning to the side after a gambling ban. Chelsea would need to offload several players to meet financial fair play requirements for such a hefty transfer fee.

Pochettino believes that Toney’s arrival could make Chelsea genuine title contenders again, emphasizing his transformative potential for the team.
