AEW's Chris Jericho: 'Pretty Sure You'll See Me In 2026 In A Wrestling Ring Somewhere' - Wrestling Inc.
Spurs boss Thomas Frank has come under fire in recent weeks, with his side going five matches without a win and hes been linked with a high-profile move to boost his strike force.
Ivan Toney scored 72 goals in 141 games under Frank at Brentford, and has been linked with a January return to England from Al Ahli.
The Saudi Pro League club are reported to be keen to keep the 29-year-old, but that hasnt stopped speculation that Toney could be reunited with his old boss in North London.
Former Spurs forward backs move
Louis Saha knows plenty about scoring goals in the Premier League, having found the net 84 times in the English top flight during his career.
The last of those came during a spell with Spurs, and he thinks Toney should be an option for his old club in January.
I havent followed Ivan Toney too closely since he moved to Saudi Arabia, and its not easy to draw conclusions because the standard of football obviously isnt the same as it is in the Premier League or Europes other top competitions, said Saha, speaking in association with punditarena.com.
But I think if Toney is free to move in the winter transfer window, then its something youd have to consider. Hes the right kind of player for Tottenham to be looking at, particularly given Dominic Solanke and Richarlison arent quite at the required level at least they arent now.
I think they both need to work on a better understanding and connection with the midfield and the players who are out wide.
Tottenham have become more cohesive under Frank, but theres still a missing link between the players.
They must have had high hopes for Xavi Simons, but hes been quite timid so far, which hasnt helped.
Richarlison, of course, does have a bit of confidence and an aura about him, but that isnt always enough because he doesnt read the game well enough, and he isnt clinical enough. I also think Solanke is lacking confidence, so its a tough one for the manager to solve.
Frank obviously knows Toney and knows what he can offer. I think its worth a conversation if there is a chance a deal can be done.
