# Glasgow Rangers: Ibrox transfer target Ivan Toney valued at £15m by Peterborough

**Glasgow Rangers are reportedly interested in signing Peterborough striker Ivan Toney but have been told that he will not come cheap.**

Barry Fry, director of football at the English League One club, told the [Scottish Daily Mail](https://www.pressreader.com/uk/scottish-daily-mail/20200609/283180085696747) \[via [The Scottish Sun](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/5681569/celtic-rangers-peterborough-ivan-toney/)\] that the ‘Gers are interested in the 24-year-old but would have to stump up £15m to sign him.

Fry said: “I’ve had agents on telling me that Rangers and Celtic are very interested. But I haven’t had any calls from either Rangers or Celtic, personally. If they have any sense, they’ll pay us £15million to get him. If they haven’t any sense at all, then I won’t be hearing from them.”

Toney has been in excellent form for Peterborough this season, netting [26 goals in 39 games](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ivan-toney/leistungsdaten/spieler/251664) in all competitions, with his 24 league goals making him [by far the top scorer in English League One](https://www.whoscored.com/Regions/252/Tournaments/8/Seasons/7841/Stages/17630/PlayerStatistics/England-League-One-2019-2020).

The ‘Gers could be in the market for a centre-forward this summer given the abundant transfer interest in [leading marksman](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glasgow-rangers/leistungsdaten/verein/124) Alfredo Morelos. [Leicestershire Live](https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/rangers-transfer-leicester-newcastle-united-4188060) claimed that Leicester, West Ham, Aston Villa and Newcastle are all interested in signing the Colombian, who has struck [29 goals](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/leistungsdaten/spieler/338962) this season for the Light Blues.

[The Scottish Sun](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/5681569/celtic-rangers-peterborough-ivan-toney/) claimed that the Ibrox club could cash in on Morelos, whose departure would clearly leave a huge goal-scoring void in Steven Gerrard’s line-up.

Toney may have enjoyed a magnificent season with Peterborough but, aside from two token Premier League substitute appearances [lasting a combined 10 minutes](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ivan-toney/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/251664/saison/2015/wettbewerb/GB1/verein/762), he has [never played at a higher level than the English third tier](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ivan-toney/detaillierteleistungsdaten/spieler/251664).

Therefore, the ‘Gers would be foolish to fork out £15m on a striker who is unproven at top-flight level, especially with [coronavirus curtailing clubs’ spending power](https://www.ft.com/content/067a3eeb-e915-48af-8384-94fdc495cf59) and the Ibrox outfit making [only one £5m+ signing in the last 10 years](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glasgow-rangers/transferrekorde/verein/124).

Also, the Light Blues are [reportedly in the hunt](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8395057/Livingston-want-2m-striker-Lyndon-Dykes-Celtic-Rangers-lead-hunt-demand-star.html) for Livingston’s Lyndon Dykes, a [proven scorer in the Premiership](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lyndon-dykes/leistungsdaten/spieler/347138) and valued at a paltry £428,000 by [TransferMarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lyndon-dykes/profil/spieler/347138). Even if Morelos goes, the ‘Gers should avoid paying over the odds for Toney.
