Explained: why Chelsea have cooled their transfer interest on Ivan Toney (reliability: 5 stars)

As per Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea have decided to cool their interest in possibly signing Brentford forward Ivan Toney in the summer.

The Blues are not that convinced that Toney can be an ideal option for the club anymore, despite his decent return from the suspension.

Chelsea are now looking into other potential striker target options who are much younger than the 27-year-old Englishman.

The club continue to be strongly linked to a possible move for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen and are also reportedly interested in Brighton man Evan Ferguson.

Chelsea have made it a priority to sign a new centre-forward in the summer even though Nicolas Jackson has scored 11 goals in his debut campaign.
