The striker has outgrown his current club and he’s been very open about the fact he’s ready to make the leap to the next level.
The England international has been strongly linked to a number of clubs since the summer, but it’s Arsenal and Chelsea who have been most strongly linked with a move for the £60m man.
Speaking on TalkSPORT, Scott Minto has been discussing Toney’s future, and he’s predicted that the striker will ultimately end up signing for Arsenal, but not in the January transfer window.

Minto predicts Toney will join Arsenal
Minto shared his verdict on the striker’s future.
“Brentford fans know that it’s not a case of if he goes, it’s when he goes. I think he owes the club to stay until the end of the season, but then he’s gone. As much as I’d love to see him at Chelsea, I think he will be an Arsenal player next season,” Minto said.
Long way to go
It’s hard to predict where Toney will end up, especially if he is going to move in the summer rather than in January.
Indeed, there’s plenty of time between now and the summer transfer window, and a lot can happen between now and then.
Chelsea could become even more desperate for a striker if they continue to falter in the final third, while Arsenal could go off the idea of spending big money on a new forward if Gabriel Jesus hits form or Eddie Nketiah continues to score goals on a regular basis.
It’s almost impossible to predict summer transfers ahead of the summer because there are so many variables at play, and with a player like Toney who is currently banned from playing anyway, it’s a fool’s errand to guess where he will end up.
