Ivan Toney, the talented football player, has been making a name for himself in the Saudi Pro League with his impressive goal-scoring abilities. Despite the presence of big names like Cristiano Ronaldo, Toney remains focused on his own game and aims to surpass the Portuguese star in both goals and league standings.
Moving from Brentford to Al Ahli over the summer, Toney joined the ranks of renowned players like Roberto Firmino, Riyad Mahrez, and Edouard Mendy. However, his team has had a slow start to the season with only three wins in eight league games. Nevertheless, Toney has managed to score three goals in six appearances and has set ambitious targets for himself.
In an interview with talkSPORT, Toney revealed that he always sets targets for himself, but prefers to keep them to himself until he achieves them. He is determined to continue playing well and scoring goals to help his team win games.
When asked about the presence of Ronaldo in the league, Toney responded with confidence, stating that he does not pay much attention to what other players are doing. He acknowledges Ronaldo's talent but remains focused on his own game and aims to beat him on the pitch.
Last season, Ronaldo set the bar high with 35 goals in the Saudi Pro League, while this season, Al Hilal's Aleksandar Mitrovic has already scored 10 goals in just eight appearances. Toney hopes to follow in their footsteps and continue his impressive performance to catch the attention of the England national team.
Despite leaving the Premier League, Toney has not been told that he will not be considered for future England squads. He remains positive and believes that his performances in Saudi Arabia will keep him in the running for a spot in the team. Toney understands that he can only control his performance on the pitch and remains focused on playing his best to achieve his goals.
