Toney made the sensational move from Brentford to Al-Ahli as the Saudi Pro League side looked to sign a striker. The English forward had been competing with Napoli's Victor Osimhen to make the move to Saudi and Al-Ahli decided to take on a punt on the Brentford striker.

WHAT HAPPENED?

After going goalless through his first two games for Al-Ahli, Toney turned up in style against Damac in his third official game for the side, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/cristiano-ronaldo-sadio-mane-al-nassr-steven-gerrard-al-ettifaq-georginio-wijnaldum/bltbd714a2f4767d8b2" target="_blank">scoring twice to secure a 4-2 win for Al-Ahli</a>. It was then revealed by an official Al-Ahli cameraman, who had been photographing the match from the sideline, that Toney had promised him on WhatsApp that he would score two goals in Al-Ahli's next match. In his message to the cameraman, Toney had texted him 'Next game 2 goals'.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Former Liverpool star Roberto Firmino and former Celta Vigo star Gabri Veiga were also on the scoresheet for Al-Ahli as they look to chase down early league leaders Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal for the lead of the Saudi Pro League standings.

DID YOU KNOW?

The England striker will hope to continue this form into the rest of the month for Al-Ahli as he looks to enter the England squad once again under Lee Carsley after having been left out of the squad in the September international break.

WHAT NEXT FOR TONEY?
