The 28-year-old Brentford striker has scored four goals in 11 Premier League games since returning from an eight-month ban for breaching the Football Association's gambling laws. Since firing the Bees to promotion in May 2021, Toney has scored 36 goals in 77 Premier League outings.

Toney was a thorn in United's side at the Gtech Community Stadium last Saturday as he laid on a stoppage-time assist for Kristoffer Ajer to equalise against the Reds, and
