Brentford’s Ivan Toney has been hit with an eight-month ban from all footballing activity with immediate effect and fined £50,000 following an independent investigation into more than 230 alleged betting rule breaches.
Toney was charged with 232 breaches of FA betting rules in November 2022, before being hit with a further 30 charges the following month.
An FA statement read: ‘Ivan Toney has been suspended from all football and football-related activity with immediate effect for eight months, which runs up to and including 16 January 2024, fined £50,000 and warned as to his future conduct for breaches of The FA’s Betting Rules.’
