Former Manchester United midfielder Tosin Kehinde is a target for Brentford.

Kehinde, 23, has excelled in the Danish Superliga with Randers and Brentford's link with Denmark runs deep, as their owner Matthew Benham also owns Midtjylland.

The Manchester Evening News says Brentford's manager, Thomas Frank, is Danish and the club had two players in Denmark's European Championship squad that reached the semi-finals.

Kehinde is believed to be a back-up option for Brentford and Championship side Barnsley have already had an offer rejected for the United academy graduate.

Middlesbrough have expressed interest in Kehinde, as well as Ligue 1 side Troyes. Monaco and Rennes are believed to be monitoring the Nigerian-born midfielder.
