  • Ivan Toney has highlighted his ideal end to the 2023/24 Premier League season
  • He wants a happy ending for himself, Brentford and England at the Euros 2024
  • He is a subject of transfer speculation and has named the club he wants to join

Ivan Toney is dreaming of a big ending to the season for Brentford, England and himself ahead of an impending move away from Brentford at the end of the current season.

Toney returned to action in January after serving an eight-month suspension for 232 breaches of the FA betting rules for professional footballers, also incurring a £50,000 fine.

His return has yet to do much for the London side, who are still at risk of relegation with 10 games left in the season, as they are 15th on the log and five points above the drop zone.

The England international is playing his final season at the Gtech Community Stadium, with expectations that he would be sold in the summer. His suspension prevented a sale last summer.

Toney ‘wants’ Real Madrid move

The 28-year-old, in an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, has outlined how a perfect end to the summer would be for him, Brentford and England ahead of Euro 2024.

“We [Brentford] start winning games. We win every game from now till the end of the season. I'd score 20 goals, and we keep clean sheets in the nine games left. Then, I'm in the mix for Euros, and we [England] win it,” he said.
"If Brentford wants to sell me, they make their money, I move to Madrid, and it's all good,” he added.

His next destination is most likely the Premier League, with Chelsea and Arsenal reportedly interested in his signature, even though talks about him have cooled down recently.

His dreams are not wild, as Team Talk reported of Madrid’s interest in signing him in November, though not much has developed around the story since then.

Toney nets free,, kick on return

Sports Brief reported on Toney scoring a free kick for Brentford on his return to action against Nottingham Forest after eight months without competitive football.

He pulled a smart one by adjusting the ball's position and put a low shot around the wall past Dean Henderson to mark his return to the pitch with a great goal.
