Toney is not an elite player imo
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea, Villa, Spurs were all in for a striker at some point during this window and none of them bid for him... make of that what you will
----------------------------------------------------------------------
400k a week after tax probs the issue, ontop of tthe 40m fee.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't think he'd expect to earn that at a PL team.

Apparently Al Ahli have a deal agreed for both Osimhen and Toney. There is a limit of 8 foreigners per team and they already have 7,so it could come down to a choice of 1 of the 2. Unless they shift someone on. Both players appear to be holding on for a move to a big European move instead.

The move to SA makes sense for Toney. He has the opportunity to make money far beyond what his career and ability would usually allow. I would be disappointed to see Osimhen take the money at this stage of his career.

Apparently they are trying to move Roberto Firmino to another team to make a space available. Firmino is currently their captain.

Dear me, what a farce

Disappointing to see this. He'd be the 1st real elite player to go there.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What about all the other elite players there already?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Process only counts Casemiro and rashford as elite
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeh strange comment.
Toney isn't even near being the best player that's gone there so far.

Gambling is illegal in Saudi isn't it? Perhaps Toney has a real problem with it that we don't know about so removing that temptation will do him good.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep I'm sure its that and nothing to do with his salary going from 18k to 300k a week. Good on the lad for wanting to fight his demons no matter that it takes!

He mighn't be the biggest name to go there but he's probably the 1st real top talent to go there.

Usually it's lads past their peak or middle of the road players like Mitrovic & Ruben Neves that have went.

Osimhen is probably the 1st guy both in his 20's and arguably top 10 in the world in his position to go there that I can think of.

I rate Jordan Henderson above Oshimen tbh

Sounds as though Chelsea's salary offer to Osimhen was just €4m per year (plus performance bonuses) which is less than some of their fringe squad players earn. Ultimately he didn't do the lucrative Saudi deal while waiting to see if a big European club would come in with an offer. He shouldn't be portrayed as a mercenary for finding Chelsea's offer insulting.

It’s odd that Chelsea supposedly offered him so little but reports that they are going to pay all of Sancho’s wages.

Also, I thought the Saudi club had chosen Toney over Oshimen.


Been a total mess by Oshimen and Napoli. If he really wanted to move away he shouldn’t have accepted their new contract and expect others to match it. Napoli should have been more realistic if they really wanted to sell him too, now they’re left with a player who will rot in the reserves until they can flog him off for cheap in January or next summer.

The contract is the type you sign if you are rated as a big name signing. Reasonable release clause, increase in wages which was his first one. I get the feeling his release price wasn't reached (120 million I think) and Napoli just started acting like Napoli. I actually feel bad for him.
