# Newcastle United: Magpies could pocket £3m if Ivan Toney leaves Peterborough for Brentford

**Craig Hope has delivered what could be a potential boost to Newcastle United on his official Twitter page.**

The Daily Mail journalist claimed in a [tweet](https://twitter.com/CraigHope_DM/status/1299081898971541505) with regards to the Tyneside club: “I’m told they have a 30% sell-on clause for Ivan Toney.”

> Some good news for NUFC… I’m told they have a 30% sell-on clause for Ivan Toney, so they should pocket around £3m if he joins Brentford for £10m, as reported. Straight into the striker fund, you’d assume.

Indeed, the former Magpies striker has been strongly [linked](https://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/football/peterborough-united/peterborough-united-agree-sell-ivan-toney-brentford-ps10-million-according-reports-2954935) with a £10 million move away from League One team Peterborough United to EFL Championship play-off final losers Brentford.

And, given that the Toon have a 30 per cent sell-on clause, they would be set to receive a £3 million boost that could possibly go into their own transfer kitty.

Indeed, Steve Bruce may be looking to buy a brand new striker of his own given the sheer lack of goals shared by his centre-forwards in the 2019/2020 term.

Between Andy Carroll, Dwight Gayle, Joelinton and Yoshinori Muto in the Premier League in the last season, they only managed to score a mere six goals between them, with both Carroll and Muto drawing blanks, as per [Whoscored.](https://www.whoscored.com/PlayerComparison)

While £3 million would likely not be enough to find the kind of prolific poacher that Bruce wants, it would certainly help toward a transfer fee or paying a player’s wages.

NUFC have apparently been offered the chance to sign Watford club-captain Troy Deeney, but the Hornets man is [reportedly](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/newcastle-united-transfer-rumours/newcastle-united-magpies-offered-watford-ace-troy-deeney/) on £100,000 per week at Vicarage Road, which may prove to be a stumbling block in the chances of him moving to the North East.

However, £3 million could contribute to deals like that of Deeney, and so perhaps fans will be hoping that the Toney transfer can get over the line as soon as possible.
