Nottingham Forest are preparing to sell Brennan Johnson.
The Wales international is a target for Brentford, with talks now underway.
The London Evening Standard says a move is now a step closer after he was left out of today’s friendly against Notts County.
Forest are ready to demand as much as ?50m for Johnson, with Aston Villa also keen.
However, the Bees are regarded as favourites to land the attacker.
