Newcastle United are eyeing Brentford striker Ivan Toney.

The Telegraph says Newcastle are eyeing a £30million move to re-sign Toney after accepting they will miss out on highly-rated Benfica starlet Darwin Nunez.

The Magpies are expected to be busy in this summer's transfer market after being bought by a Saudi-backed consortium in October, with Eddie Howe thought to be prioritising a striker.

Toney, who Newcastle sold to Peterborough for just £650,000 four years ago, has emerged as a potential target.

It is believed Benfica striker Nunez, who has scored 32 goals in 37 appearances across all competitions this season, favours a move to a team in the Champions League.

That has led Newcastle to turn their attention elsewhere, with Toney - sold by then-manager Rafa Benitez in 2018 - a potential target.
