The English striker continued to shine in the Roshen League, underlining his status as one of the division’s most potent goal threats. His latest display of clinical finishing and relentless work rate has once again put the spotlight on his remarkable form, prompting fans and pundits alike to debate his credentials for international recognition. With each match, the forward’s ability to combine raw power with precise technique is earning him comparisons with England’s all-time greats, while his consistency is driving his club towards a potentially historic campaign. As the season enters its decisive phase, opponents will be watching closely to see whether the in-form striker can maintain his impressive run and lead his team to silverware.
Former Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Mark Crossley has explained penalty-saving secrets to GOAL, revealing how he would go about trying to thwart Bruno Fernandes and Ivan Toney. Water bottles adorned with advice and instructions have become all the rage in modern football, but do they really make much of a difference in a battle of wills from 12 yards?
The 12 games of the Thomas Tuchel era have yielded mixed results and performances from England. They remain one of the best sides in international football, even if they haven't played particularly well for extended stretches since the Sir Gareth Southgate era. That said, they are among the favourites to win the 2026 World Cup for several reasons.
Ivan Toney was at the heart of a heated post-match scuffle following Al-Ahli’s dramatic 3-2 defeat to Brendan Rodgers’ Al-Qadsiah. Despite the England striker scoring his 25th league goal of the season, the hosts' sensational second-half comeback sparked a tense atmosphere that boiled over as the final whistle blew.
Ivan Toney continued his sensational form in the Saudi Pro League, proving once again why he is the division’s most feared marksman. During Al-Ahli’s high-stakes Sea Derby clash against arch-rivals Al-Ittihad, the England international opened the scoring in a 3-1 victory that saw his side reclaim top spot in the table. However, it was his post-goal antics that caught the eye of social media users across the globe.
Cristiano Ronaldo has his sights set on footballing immortality once again, but England international Ivan Toney is stood firmly in his path. The Portuguese icon entered the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League campaign looking to build on a period of unprecedented dominance, having secured consecutive Golden Boot awards since his arrival in the Middle East. Ronaldo’s goal-scoring exploits saw him hammer home 35 goals in 31 league appearances during the 2023–24 season, a feat he followed up with another impressive 25-goal haul last term. With 21 goals from as many games in the current campaign, he will be confident of taking the crown once again despite Toney's exploits.
England international Ivan Toney has found himself at the centre of one of the more bizarre flashpoints of the Saudi Pro League season following Al-Ahli’s narrow victory over Damac. The former Brentford talisman, who has been in clinical form since his high-profile move to the Middle East, was involved in a heated and unusual exchange with an opposition defender that quickly went viral across social media platforms. While the match itself was a tight affair decided by a single goal, the post-match fallout has been dominated by Toney’s blunt assessment of his opponent's personal hygiene.
GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.
There has been heated debate over who should play back-up to Harry Kane for England at the World Cup this summer, but in truth the answer is becoming increasingly obvious. There is only one striker who can hold a candle to the Three Lions captain this season, and it is one who is operating out of sight and out of mind in Saudi Arabia, where he has eclipsed Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ivan Toney has sent a World Cup message to England manager Thomas Tuchel, reminding the German tactician that he is still “hungry” for goals and international recognition after leaving the Premier League for a stint in the Saudi Pro League. The former Brentford striker has been competing with Portuguese GOAT Cristiano Ronaldo for Golden Boot honours in the Middle East.
Ivan Toney has explained why he followed Cristiano Ronaldo to the Saudi Pro League, with the England World Cup hopeful netting more goals in that division this season than Portuguese GOAT CR7. Toney has also delivered a bold statement regarding the standard of competition in the Middle East and that which he previously graced in the Premier League.
