Toney completed a move to Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli on deadline day.
Ivan Toney’s girlfriend must follow a series of strict rules in Saudi Arabia after the England striker completed a £40 million move to Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli.
The 28-year-old left Brentford on deadline day to move to Saudi Arabia, and is believed to be earning over £300,000 per week at his new club.
Toney had been heavily linked with a move away from the Bees throughout the summer transfer window, and was left out of the matchday squad for their opening two Premier League fixtures.

It emerged earlier this month that Al Ahli were interested in striking an agreement to sign Toney and were in discussions over personal terms.
But Sky Sports reported on Tuesday that Chelsea had entered the race to sign the striker and were preparing a bid.
The Saudi Pro League side opted to sign Toney to fill their final foreign player slot, with Osimhen now left in limbo in Italy.

When it comes to living in the country, the wives and partners of star players, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Ruben Neves, have to follow a set of rules.
In December 2022, upon Ronaldo’s arrival to Saudi Arabia, El Periodico reported that his girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, would have to dress with ‘modesty and decorum’.
In addition, a foreign woman is unable to import or consume alcohol, or any pork products.
They are also banned from eating, drinking or smoking in public places during the month of Ramadan.
They also must request and obtain permssion to attend holy pilgrimages, such as Mecca and Medina.
The kingdom doesn’t allow for unmarried couples to live together, although it was reported that they were ‘turning a blind eye’ to Ronaldo and Rodriguez doing so and now do not prosecute people for breaking the rule unless a crime is involved.
Speaking about her own experience of adapting to life in Saudi Arabia, Rodriguez told Saudi magazine Hia in May: “I admit that moving to a new country, another language and a different way of life is always a bit difficult, but the experience of discovering Saudi Arabia so far has been an amazing journey.”
