da apostebet: According to a report by West Ham United insiders Claret & Hugh, the Irons have been talking to Brentford ace Ivan Toney’s representatives over a possible summer move – with yet another striker seriously on the radar it would seem.
West Ham insiders shares Toney news
da bet7k: This comes as links to Chelsea forward Tammy Abraham continue to heat up with ExWHUemployee recently revealing that he is top of the Hammers’ list of preferred forwards (Patreon).
However, bringing fresh information, C&H explain that West Ham United have now contacted the representatives of Championship high-flyer Toney as an alternative option.
The 25-year-old forward has a contract with the Bees until 2025 and could demand a considerable transfer fee, valued at around £35 million according to a recent update by Football League World.

Regardless, West Ham are allegedly in the fray alongside a host of Premier League clubs including Everton, Leeds, Wolves and Palace.
Transfer Tavern take
He has been on fire for the promotion-chasing side this season and could be a huge signing if GSB manage to do a deal this summer.
Indeed, Toney has netted an extraordinary 29 goals and 10 assists in 42 Championship starts for Brentford and, at just 25, could prove a real snip for £35m.
You could argue he rivals Abraham in terms of top striking targets and has been heralded by figures in the media as ‘unplayable’ for his form over 2020/2021 (David Cartlidge, ESPN).
We therefore believe that he should be prioritised just as much as Abraham with manager David Moyes seeking to acquire a much-needed striker this summer.
