Brentford manager Thomas Frank has revealed to Danish outlet Tipsbladet that the departure of striker Ivan Toney from the club is highly likely this summer.
Toney, aged 27, has attracted interest from several top Premier League clubs, such as Arsenal and Chelsea, and is approaching the final year of his contract.
While Brentford will seek a significant transfer fee for the English forward, it’s uncertain if they will secure the £100 million valuation that Frank believes Toney warrants.
“It is relatively obvious that Ivan Toney will probably be sold this summer,” Frank said. “We also know what he is worth.
“I don’t think there are many strikers in the world who are better than him right now.
“He is a really skilled striker who is in his prime football age. Personally, as a coach, I would prefer to keep Toney but one day it could be fun to see him on a top team.
“This winter, we actually had no offers for him.
