England coach Gareth Southgate says Brentford striker Ivan Toney is on his radar.

Former Newcastle trainee Toney, 25, has already scored twice in the Prem so far this season after hitting 31 for promoted Bees in the Championship last term.

And he impressed against Liverpool's star defender Virgil van Dijk in the Bees' 3-3 draw with the Reds on Saturday.

Southgate said: “We were impressed with him at Brentford last year.

“We have watched him this season, so we know all about him.

“We weren't looking to take an additional striker for this camp but he is definitely a player we are monitoring closely.

“I think he has had a really good start to his Premier League career."
