Morning ed002, hope you're well. Do you know if we have approached Brentford with an offer for toney?

{Ed002's Note - Ivan Toney (S) Brentford do not want to sell but are aware Toney may look to move up a step and will reluctantly look to perhaps £70M as a sale price in the summer - but will likely not get anything close to that. It would be driven by situation which could see him run down his contract next season and leave as a Free Agent - so Brentford will seek a new contract. Newcastle no longer offer the chance of a return to the club who previously could find no use for him in the three years he was there. Arsenal, Leeds, Manchester United, Spurs, Chelsea and West Ham have all sent scouts on more than one occasion to watch him prior to his ban, but all have preferred options. Was first choice for Arsenal but that has disappeared as the price has not dropped to around £40M - but if it does they may well look again. Middle East Al-Qadsiah will be one option. Aston Villa are losing Duran and could look to him.}

I'd far prefer Rasmus Hojlund.

I like a bit of Fleetwood Mac myself.

A lot of money when we have Hojlund and Zirkee. A player that I thought about as a senior striker who scored at the weekend who I wouldn’t mind testing the water for would be Welbeck. United fan and been through the academy. You’d think he’d be prepared to come in as a squad player and support Hojlund and Zirkee. Got good experience and I imagine wouldn’t cost a lot and is still scoring goals in the Premier League.

Welbeck would be great around the place, ports but like quite a few other ex players, he was hurt with the way he felt united treated him. I doubt he would come back.
