Brentford striker Ivan Toney is keen to leave the club for a top side in January.

The forward, who will have served an FA ban for betting violations by that time, has not played this season.

Toney, who is only just working his way to full fitness after being allowed to train with Brentford, wants to leave for a Champions League team.

Per The Mirror, Toney is keen to sign for Arsenal, while the interest is said to be mutual.

The Gunners want a proven scorer who can offer them good link up play in the Premier League.

Toney fits the bill, as he is equally adept at playing with his back to goal or facing the net.
