One of the most outstanding Premier League players during the year under review is English forward Ivan Toney.

The 26-year-old forward's impressive form in front of goal hasn't gone unnoticed and was most recently rewarded with a call-up to the England squad. It was his first ever invitation to the senior national team but he didn't feature in the two games played by the Three Lions.

Toney is currently the fifth-highest goal scorer in the league in 2022, after registering 13 goals in 25 games for Brentford.

The highly rated forward has already netted five goals in nine league matches in the ongoing campaign for Thomas Frank's Brentford team.


#4 Wilfried Zaha - Crystal Palace - 13 goals
