Brentford are moving for Nice striker Kasper Dolberg.
The Dane is admired by Bees manager Thomas Frank, who worked with him as national youth coach.
Brentford have asked Nice to name their price for Dolberg.
And Nice has not flatly refused to sell Dolberg, but the club will first give new coach Lucien Favre the opportunity to look at the Dane.
Favre favours a lone striker system, which could mean problems for Dolberg.
