Brentford boss Marinus Dijkhuizen is chasing Chelsea midfielder Josh McEachran.
McEachran spent last season on-loan in Holland with Vitesse Arnhem.
Dijkhuizen is a fan of the midfielder and talks over a permanent deal have already kicked off. Indeed, terms could be struck this week.
McEachran has been offered a four-year deal by the Championship outfit.
Brentford are banking on Chelsea granting the 22 year-old a free transfer.
