Brentford are eyeing Watford striker Jerome Sinclair.

The Watford Observer says Sinclair has been linked with a loan move to Brentford.

The 20-year-old joined the Hornets this summer in a five-year deal from Liverpool but has been a peripheral figure this season.

Sinclair had to wait until last week to make his first start in the defeat at Manchester City.

His only other appearance came as an 89th minute substitute at West Brom this month.

It seems clear Watford see Sinclair as a player with long-term potential but he remains well down the pecking order in Walter Mazzarri's squad.
