The England striker wants a loan move to the Premier League to boost his World Cup chances. Leeds United chances of signing Ivan Toney revealed
Ivan Toney has once again been linked with a return to English football, with Leeds United reportedly among the clubs interested in signing him ahead of the January transfer window.
The England striker, currently playing for Al Ahli in the Saudi Pro League, is said to be keen on a loan move back to the Premier League as he looks to boost his World Cup hopes.
Despite earning a massive salary abroad, Toney is reportedly eager to return to England and prove himself once more at the highest level.
For Leeds, attacking reinforcements have become a clear priority. The Whites have endured an inconsistent season under Daniel Farke, showing flashes of promise early on but struggling for form since the October international break.
A disappointing defeat to Burnley raised concerns, and back-to-back losses to Brighton and Nottingham Forest have only intensified pressure on the manager.
While Leeds’ form has dipped, there is hope that the upcoming January transfer window could provide a much-needed spark. According to journalist Alex Crook, the club is one of several sides monitoring Toney’s situation.
Everton, West Ham, Tottenham, and Manchester United have also been linked with the former Brentford star.
“Well, they’d be queuing up for him, no question about that — Everton, West Ham, Tottenham, Leeds as well,” Crook said. “Probably half the league would take Ivan Toney. But a move to England in January won’t be straightforward.”
Crook explained that Toney’s massive salary in Saudi Arabia — reportedly around £400,000 per week — makes any deal complicated.
Leaving early would mean losing a significant amount of money, and with England boss Thomas Tuchel seemingly settled on his World Cup squad plans, a move might not guarantee Toney’s international return.
Even so, stranger things have happened in football. Sunderland’s shock summer signing of Granit Xhaka from Bayer Leverkusen proved that ambitious deals are not impossible.
Leeds’ need for a proven goalscorer could push them to make a bold move, especially with their Premier League status at risk.
Toney’s profile fits perfectly with what Leeds are missing — a strong, physical centre-forward with Premier League experience and a proven eye for goal.
His aerial strength, link-up play, and finishing ability could make him an ideal addition for Farke’s side as they fight to stay in the top flight.
