Ivan Toney is prepared to turn down a move to Juventus to keep scoring goals in the Saudi Pro League and boost his chances of playing for England at the 2026 World Cup.
Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti is keen to sign a striker before the transfer deadline, with Toney among his targets. However, the Al-Ahli forward is focused on earning a place in Thomas Tuchel's England squad.
Toney, who leads the SPL scoring charts with 18 goals, said: 'I feel like I’m doing well right now and that continuing to score goals here will give me a stronger chance to get to what could be my only World Cup.'
The 29-year-old added: 'Harry Kane is the best finisher in football. For me, it's not easy to score goals in this league. We have some good players that enjoy assisting, and thankfully for them, they have a striker that loves scoring.'
Toney recently scored a hat-trick for Al-Ahli, moving two goals ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi scoring charts.
