Tottenham Explore January Move for Ivan Toney as Frank Opens Door to Reunion

Al‑Ahli’s reluctance to sell, coupled with Toney’s wages, complicates a winter deal.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Tottenham are open to bringing Ivan Toney back to the Premier League, with Thomas Frank publicly praising the striker and hinting at future possibilities.
  • Football Insider reports Spurs would likely need to offload Dominic Solanke or Richarlison to advance a January deal, with a loan described as the most realistic route.
  • TalkSPORT reports Al‑Ahli do not want to sanction a mid‑season exit and that Toney’s reported £400,000‑per‑week tax‑free salary is a major obstacle to any move.
  • Tottenham’s attack has misfired this season, with Solanke sidelined by an ankle injury since August, Randal Kolo Muani yet to score, and Mathys Tel offering limited returns.
  • Richarlison’s role remains uncertain amid external interest noted by reporters, and some coverage suggests Spurs may prioritise other positions in January, pointing to a potential summer timeline for a striker.
