Brentford striker Ivan Toney has issued a response after he was banned from all football and football-related activity for eight months after breaching FA betting rules. The 27-year-old has been handed a £50,000 fine for his conduct after admitting to 232 breaches with 30 withdrawn by the FA.
A statement from the FA read: "His sanctions were subsequently imposed by an independent Regulatory Commission following a personal hearing. He is permitted to return to training only with his club for the final four months of his suspension starting from 17 September 2023.
"The independent Regulatory Commission’s written reasons for these sanctions will be published in due course, and The FA will wait to review them before commenting further," the statement added. Toney's ban will end on Wednesday, January 17 2024.
