Mini bio

How it started.

Ivan grew up in Northampton and remembers playing for Soccerstars around the age of nine. He made Northampton Town’s first team in 2012 at 16, becoming the club’s youngest first-team player. Newcastle followed, along with loan spells, before Peterborough gave him a lasting platform.

The breakthrough.

At Peterborough, he became the 2019/20 League One Player of the Year. Brentford signed him in August 2020, and he scored 31 regular-season Championship goals in his first campaign. He added two in the play-offs as the club won promotion to the Premier League.

England and a new chapter.

Toney made his England debut in March 2023. An eight-month suspension for FA betting-rule breaches interrupted his Brentford career before his January 2024 return. At Euro 2024 he assisted Harry Kane against Slovakia and converted in the Switzerland shootout. He moved to Al Ahli in August 2024 after 72 goals in 141 Brentford appearances.

Life at Al Ahli.

With Al Ahli, he helped win consecutive AFC Champions League Elite titles in 2025 and 2026. He finished the 2025/26 Saudi league season with 32 goals and seven assists, then earned the league’s September 2026 Player of the Month award.

Explaining the patience behind his penalty technique after England’s Euro 2024 shootout win over Switzerland.

Trivia

  1. He grew up supporting Liverpool; England’s profile names Jermain Defoe, Dimitar Berbatov and Sergio Aguero among his inspirations.
  2. His penalty routine keeps his eyes on the goalkeeper rather than the ball, as he explained in Brentford’s interview feature.
  3. His 2026 Lions’ Den appearance included padel, tea-making and a game of recognising distorted team-mate voices.
