Ivan Toney pictured training alone for first time since 8-month ban from football as he shares cryptic comment
IVAN TONEY has been pictured training for the first time since his eight month ban from football.
The Brentford star has shared a cryptic comment alongside the photos of his training.
Toney was banned from football for eight months for 232 betting breaches.
And whilst he can’t train with his club at he moment he is back out working to stay fit for when his ban is over.
The 27-year-old is due to return to football in January after serving his time away from the pitch.
And will be able to rejoin Brentford for training next week – starting from September 17.
But for now he is training alone and has shared some snaps of his hard work on his Instagram page.
The photos show Toney being put through his paces in what looks to be intense training.
The England international shared the post with a cryptic caption that has left fans guessing.
Alongside the images, he wrote: “I didn’t come this far to only come this far.”
Some have suggested that the caption could be a hint about an exit from Brentford with rumours swirling about potential suitors for the striker.
Toney has been linked with a move to Arsenal, Man United, Tottenham, Chelsea and Liverpool and has recently signed up with a new agent.
It is said that Brentford would be looking for around £80million for their star man in the January transfer window.
