Man United are in the market for a centre-forward and Brentford are open to selling Ivan Toney for the right price.
Toney has a proven record of scoring goals in the Premier League, he's a talented forward and seems ready for a move to a bigger club, but there is a grey area that cannot be ignored.
After the footage had gained thousands of views, Toney released a statement and apologised. “I am aware of a video that was published on social media," he said. "In it I used unacceptable language. The video was cut short and edited, but I have to accept the impact this has had. Toney disrespected Brentford and the club's supporters in just two words. He took responsibility for his actions and apologised but it left question marks around his character.
In the following campaign, Toney enjoyed the best year of his career and scored 20 goals in the Premier League, which confirmed him as one of the league's best goalscorers. Toney might have matured in the last two years and an episode like the 'f*** Brentford' incident may never happen again - but that might not be a risk worth taking for £50million.
