Thomas Frank backs Ivan Toney to thrive for Brentford in the Premier League

Brentford head coach Thomas Frank feels striker Ivan Toney and the rest of his squad are ready to attack the Premier League head on as they prepare for the opening game of the new season against Arsenal.

Toney scored 31 goals in the Sky Bet Championship last season, helping the Bees finish third before securing promotion with victory over Swansea in the play-off final at Wembley.

Having missed the final pre-season friendly against Valencia as a precaution over a neck problem, Frank confirmed Toney will be fit to tackle the Gunners as the Brentford Community Stadium prepares to host top-flight football for the first time on Friday night.

DR Congo forward Yoane Wissa could be involved on Friday night after completing his move from French side Lorient, but Mathias Jensen and Josh Dasilva remain unavailable.

Denmark midfielder Jensen is still sidelined after suffering a deep wound in his foot during the Euro 2020 semi-final defeat by England.

Dasilva, who came through Arsenal's youth system, continues to manage a hip problem.
