Brentford resigned and lost Toney
Brentford have yet to offer Ivan Toney a new contract, despite the England striker entering the final 18 months of his existing contract.
Toney still has the same contract he signed when he joined Brentford from Peterborough four years ago and is expected to attract interest from Arsenal and Chelsea this month, even though he has not played since May last year due to his gambling ban.

The 27-year-old's suspension expires on January 17, which could be a timely boost for Brentford, who have lost their last five Premier League games and find themselves in the middle of the relegation battle.
