Brentford have reportedly indicated that they are willing to sell their star striker in the new year for a fee of around \u00a380million.<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners are in need of an out-and-out goal scorer. Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus were unable to crack the all-important 20-goal tally in the Premier League last season while Toney found the back of the net 20 times in 33 top-flight appearances for the Bees.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal will have to fight off stiff competition from Chelsea for Toney&#8217;s signature, who are also said to be very interested in snapping him up. Toney&#8217;s asking price could prove to be a stumbling block for the north Londoners after spending heavily in the summer but a swap deal plus cash may help sweeten the deal for all parties involved.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here, Express Sport takes a look at three players the Gunners could let go the other way in order to bring Toney to the Emirates Stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Eddie-Nketiah-Ivan-Toney-5046419.jpg?r=1698951709126\"><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Eddie Nketiah<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A swap deal plus cash for Nketiah makes the most sense. Brentford will need a player to fill the void left by Toney while it is unlikely there will be a place in Arteta&#8217;s side for Nketiah should he make the move the former Northampton Town star.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nkeitah is three years younger than Toney and carries bags of potential but doesn&#8217;t look like the player Arsenal need right now to take them to that next level. If Nketiah was to move to Brentford then he would get more regular football and wouldn&#8217;t have to relocate out of London.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Only five Man Utd stars make the cut in combined Newcastle starting XI[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal keeper Raya warned of main problem that is out of Arteta&#8217;s control[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Ryan Gravenberch &#8216;not going to apologise&#8217; with boss still upset over decision[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Advert-free experience without interruptions.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Rocket-fast speedy loading pages.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Exclusive &#038; Unlimited access to all our content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Emile-Smith-Rowe-5046421.jpg?r=1698951709171\"><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Emile Smith-Rowe<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Emile Smith-Rowe&#8217;s time at Arsenal looks to be running out.

Although the 23-year-old has been impressive when called upon, he has been used sparingly by Arteta.
