Ivan Toney's injury is 'nothing serious', says Thomas Frank - as Brentford boss tries to allay fears over star striker after he is carried off on a stretcher with a knee issue in win at West Ham

Thomas Frank was refusing to panic after his star forward Ivan Toney was stretchered off in the dying moments of Brentford's Premier League clash with West Ham on Friday night.

The English striker went down in considerable pain after a seemingly innocuous challenge for the ball with Bees defender Ben Mee, and was unable to continue after being escorted off the field.

Brentford sealed a comfortable 2-0 win over the Hammers at the London Stadium, with both sides paying their respects to the late great Brazilian legend Pele prior to kick-off.
