Brentford are closing on a deal for FC Twente defender Andreas Bjelland.
With a year to run on his contract, the Dane is prepared to leave Twente this summer and has welcomed interest from Brentford.
Voetbal Tubantia says Brentford are in advanced talks with Twente over a deal for the defender.
Bjelland has been recommended to Brentford by fellow Dane Flemming Pedersen, who is on the club's coaching staff.
Bees owner Matthew Benham also holds a controlling stake in FC Midtjylland.
