Brentford set to complete signing of Kayode

Brentford are set to complete the signing of Michael Kayode from Fiorentina.

A deal has been agreed for the right-back, 20, to move to west London on loan for the rest of the season with a view to a permanent transfer in the summer.

He is expected to undergo a medical in the next 24 hours.

Kayode played for Italy at Under-21 level and was on Juventus’ books as a teenager.

His arrival could pave the way for Mads Roerslev to leave Brentford – he is wanted by German club Wolfsburg.
