WATCH THE CLIP

<p>Toney will be handsomely rewarded financially when linking up with Al-Ahli, as he has reportedly agreed a £400,000-a-week contract. That will leave him with plenty of spare change to invite his nearest and dearest out to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-ivan-toney-nods-awkwardly-cringe-worthy-chant-al-ahli-fans-striker-visits-saudi-club-shop-transfer-brentford/blta596f0f1abfd0d62" target="_blank">experience his latest professional adventure</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Toney told revellers at his farewell party: “It's a simple one, obviously love for coming. You know the love. You all got invited for your own reasons we've had some good memories everyone, more memories on our back I'm sure. Might be a bit older, but still get down with it, you know, like that. But, yeah, you're all welcome to come pull up anytime. Flights are on me. Don't worry I've got you. We will enjoy.”</p>

WHAT TONEY SAID

<p>Brentford left Toney out of their plans as exit talk raged in the last window. That means his last competitive appearances came when stepping off the bench for England in the Euro 2024 final – with interim Three Lions coach <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ivan-toney-given-england-warning-after-completing-blockbuster-al-ahli-transfer/bltc3a432b079a1b7e8" target="_blank">Lee Carsley leaving the proven frontman out of his squad for the start of another UEFA Nations League campaign</a>.</p>
