Arsenal is confident that Ivan Toney and Pedro Neto would have a significant impact if they join the club in the upcoming summer transfer window. Representatives from Arsenal observed both players in action during Wolverhampton Wanderers’ recent match against Brentford. According to transfer source Dean Jones, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been interested in Neto and Toney for more than a year. Jones believes that Arteta took advantage of a perfect opportunity to intensify their pursuit of the players as the Premier League season draws to a close. Arsenal sent scouts to assess Neto and Toney’s performances during the match. Jones stated, “It was an ideal fixture for them to evaluate these two players. Both players have been on Arsenal’s radar for the past year, and this was an opportunity to assess their current form. To be honest, I believe Arsenal is already convinced that either or both of these players could thrive at the Emirates. There are no real doubts about that.” Toney is valued at £100 million by Brentford, while Neto could cost around £70 million. Other Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool, are also interested in signing these players. Arsenal has been interested in both Toney and Neto for a long time. The club attempted to sign Toney in January but was unable to do so due to financial constraints imposed by Financial Fair Play regulations. Arteta is determined to strengthen his team’s attacking options and believes that signing a quality striker could help Arsenal challenge Manchester City’s dominance in the Premier League.
