Speaking about Toney’s future at Brentford, Frank told Tipsbladet via Fabrizio Romano: “Ivan Toney will most likely be sold in the summer.
“He’ll only have a year left on contract with us, so it’s quite obvious.
“This winter, we actually had NO bids for him.”

Toney returned to action in January after serving an eight-month ban for breaching betting rules and has picked up where he left off last season, scoring two goals in three games.
The 2022/23 campaign was a super successful term for the Brentford star and it has brought him a lot of attention, therefore, the striker is expected to make a big move this summer and challenge himself at the highest level.
