Tottenham Ready £52–60m Ivan Toney Bid as Everton Links Emerge, With Al‑Ahli Reluctant to Sell

Al-Ahli’s long contract terms make a January exit uncertain.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Tottenham are preparing an offer in the region of €60m (£52–60m) to bring the Al‑Ahli striker back to the Premier League, with Chelsea also monitoring.
  • Everton’s interest is described as “concrete” by Football Insider, but local reporting from the Liverpool Echo says club insiders have not heard of revived talks and flags possible tax complications.
  • Toney is under contract with Al‑Ahli until 2028 and sources indicate the Saudi club are unlikely to sanction a mid‑season departure or a loan, making a January deal complex.
  • Sources close to the player say he is content in Saudi Arabia and is not actively pushing for a move, despite outside interest.
  • The 29-year-old has started the season strongly for Al‑Ahli, with nine goals and two assists in 12 games, as links cite his England World Cup prospects as a potential motivator for a return.
