Jon Toral’s performances in the past seven days have earned him special recognition from the Football League.

The 20-year-old, on loan from Arsenal for the 2014/15 season, scored a hat-trick in Brentford’s 4-0 win over Blackpool last Tuesday, February 24.

He also featured in Brentford’s 1-0 defeat to Birmingham City on Saturday and came close to a fourth goal in the week with a chipped effort.

Those displays earned him a place in the Football League Team of the Week.

The team, published on the Football League website, is drawn from the performances over the previous seven days in all three Sky Bet Football League divisions.

Jon, who has played 27 games for The Bees this season and scored five goals, was named in the selection this week.

Six other Bees have been named in the Football League Team of the Week this season.

Jake Bidwell was selected after setting up two goals as The Bees beat Brighton and Hove Albion 3-2 in September and Jonathan Douglas was named after scoring twice in a week, against Watford and Leeds United, at the start of October.

After The Bees beat Nottingham Forest and Millwall away in the space of three days at the start of November Andre Gray, who scored three goals in the two wins was selected, and Brentford Manager Mark Warburton was named as best boss that week.

Jota has also been named once – after scoring a spectacular goal in Brentford’s win at Cardiff City just before Christmas – while Alex Pritchard has featured twice, after helping The Bees to wins over Norwich City at the end of January and then AFC Bournemouth last week.

Youngster Alfie Mawson, on loan at Wycombe Wanderers, was also named in December after scoring his first professional goal in a win at Hartlepool United.
