  WHAT HAPPENED?

  As Toney enters the final 12 months of his existing contract with Brentford, it has been reported earlier that the Bees are looking to sell the striker this summer, so as to not lose him for free. And it has now been reported by The Mirror that United could be interested in signing the 28-year-old with new co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe looking to revamp the squad.

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Arsenal and Chelsea were the clubs most heavily linked with signing Toney in January, however, the two sides have cooled their interest with the Gunners said to be monitoring RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko and Sporting's Viktor Gyokeres. Chelsea are said to be looking at alternative options too, even though Toney is likely to be available for between £40 million ($49.8m) and £50 million ($62.2m) at the end of the season.

  DID YOU KNOW?

  The Red Devils already have a similar profile up front in the form of Rasmus Hojlund, but the club is also looking for an experienced striker to take the burden away from the young Dane. Toney could fit the bill.
