Pete O’Rourke has claimed that a return to the Premier League seems unlikely for the striker, and the Saudi Arabian outfit will not want to lose a “key figure” like him. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.

He said: “I think it would be a surprise if he was to return to the Premier League. He’s a very key figure for Al Ahli since he made the move to the Pro League.


“I don’t think they would be looking to let Ivan Toney leave midway through the season.”

Manchester United will certainly hope to secure his signature. Returning to England could be ideal for the striker as well. It could help him cement his place in the England squad for the upcoming World Cup. 


Toney has been in final form since moving to Saudi Arabia, and he could make an instant impact in the Premier League as well. Manchester United need quality players like him if they want to bounce back after a disappointing start to the season. They will look to secure a top-four finish, and they must improve the team in January.
