Brentford striker Ivan Toney has been nominated for Premier League EA Sports Player of the Season.

Only Tottenham's Harry Kane and Manchester City centre-forward Erling Haaland have scored more goals than the Bees man this season, who has 20 goals in 33 Premier League appearances.

These include a hat-trick against Leeds United at the Gtech Community Stadium and a brace away at Manchester City in December, which saw him net a 98th-minute winner against the Premier League champions.

Toney has also recorded four assists, with two of those coming against Manchester United in a 4-0 victory at home at the start of the season.

The 27-year-old also received his first England cap earlier this season, when he came on as a substitute for the Three Lions in a 2-0 win over Ukraine in March.

Toney is up against international team-mates Kane, Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Kieran Trippier for the award, along with Man City duo Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne, and Arsenal playmaker Martin Odegaard, who have also been nominated.

The winner will be announced on Saturday 27 May at 11am.

Vote for Toney to win the EA Sports Player of the Season. Voting closes on Monday 22 May at 12pm.
