Bryan Mbeumo has been a consistent performer for Brentford FC since joining the club from ES Troyes AC for then club-record £5.8 million in 2019.

Mbuemo can play anywhere across the front three, but Thomas Frank has preferred him on the right wing. The Frenchman works very hard on and off the ball and is also blessed with blistering pace and quick feet.

The 21-year old played 44 league games this past season, scoring eight and assisting ten goals. He won the Brentford Goal of the Season 2020-21 accolade and was also nominated for the EFL Championship Player of the Year award at the 2020 London Football Awards.

Signed from Peterborough United in 2020, Ivan Toney has been one of the star performers of Brentford's promotion campaign.

The 25-year old won the EFL Championship Golden Shoe this past season after scoring 31 times in 45 games. He set a new Championship record for most goals scored in a single season and was also included in the PFA Championship Team of the Season.

The Englishman failed to make an impression during his last spell in the Premier League with Newcastle United but he will be looking to change that with the Bees next season.
