Bristol City have had their bid for Andre Gray accepted by Brentford.

24-year-old Gray has been attracting the interest from a host of clubs this summer and Hull City were said to be leading the race to sign the striker.

To deal a huge blow to Hull's hopes of signing Gray, it has now been revealed that Bristol have had their proposal accepted by the Bees.

The BBC claims that the Robins have met Brentford's asking price of around £9million and the former Luton Town man has been given permission to hold talks with the newly-promoted Championship side.
