Chelsea midfielder Josh McEachran is on the verge of joining Championship club Brentford.

According to Sky Sports, the 22-year old is set to sign a four-year deal with the Bees who qualified for the Premier League playoffs last season.

McEachran, who signed a five-year deal with Chelsea in 2011, has been sent out on loan on five occasions since having taken in spells with Swansea City, Middlesbrough, Watford, Wigan Athletic and Dutch club Vitesse Arnhem.

The former England youth international is set to become Brentford's sixth summer signing following defenders Yoann Barbet, Andreas Bjelland and midfielders Akaki Gogia, Ryan Williams and Konstantin Kerschbaumer.
