Thomas Frank insists Brentford will be prepared if Ivan Toney is sold in the January transfer window with both Arsenal and Chelsea interested in signing the striker.<\/p>\n

Arsenal news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n

Toney is currently\u00a0serving an eight-month ban after he accepted 232 breaches of the Football Association\u2019s rules on betting\u00a0and is suspended until January 17, 2024.<\/p>\n

But the 27-year-old may have already played his final game for Brentford as both Arsenal and Chelsea are keen on a deal in the January window.<\/p>\n

Reports this week have claimed that Arsenal are planning to submit a bid in the next window, while Chelsea are also keeping tabs on the situation as they plan to bolster Mauricio Pochettino\u2019s squad with a central striker.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s understood that Brentford are demanding at least \u00a380 million for Toney, who scored 20 Premier League goals last season.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And Brentford manager Frank is refusing to rule out the possibility of losing their star striker before the end of the season.<\/p>\n

When asked what he expects to happen in the next transfer window, Frank replied: \u2018In January? I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

\u2018The only thing I\u2019m focusing on is the game tomorrow [against Arsenal in the Carabao Cup].<\/p>\n

\u2018As you know we are preparing for transfer windows ahead. Of course, we are not only looking not only at striker options or full-back, we are prepared for any position if something should happen.<\/p>\n

\u2018I think it\u2019s also fair to say that if we wanted a striker in the summer we could\u2019ve tried to get one, we got one in Neal [Maupay], you could say that, so, yeah, let\u2019s see.\u2019<\/p>\n
