Sheringham urges Spurs to battle Arsenal for Ivan Toney signing
Ivan Toney is a transfer target for local rivals Arsenal.
"Everyone is talking about Arsenal getting Ivan Toney in January," Sheringham told Gambling Zone. "He seems to be the only player in the centre-forward position that might be available in the next window.
"I would love to see Tottenham nick him off of Brentford and get there before Arsenal do.
"Toney has got something about him. He carries himself well and can take on the mantle of being the main man at a club.
"Everyone is suggesting that he could be the icing on the cake for Arsenal, but I think he could be a big, big player for Tottenham at this moment in time."
