Ivan Toney has emerged as a top target for Manchester United in the January transfer window.

Brentford striker Ivan Toney is suspended until 2024 for violating Premier League betting rules but that has not stopped clubs from eyeing the talented striker.

The 27-year-old scored 20 league goals last season, outlining his importance to Brentford and enhancing his reputation.

Despite adding young striker Rasmus Hojlund to his squad, Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is still interested in bolstering his forward options.

According to Football Transfers, Man Utd are interested in signing Toney after they had ‘conservations’ with the Brentford man before their pre-season tour.

Brentford have done well without Toney so far, picking up 19 points from their first 15 games.

Should Ten Hag push forward with his interest, the Bees are expected to charge a hefty fee for a striker whose contract expires in 2025.
