Fiorentina defender Michael Kayode is reportedly nearing a switch to Premier League club Brentford.
According to Violanews, Brentford want to sign Kayode on loan with an option to make the transfer permanent at the end of the season.
The Serie A club would however like to include a buy-back clause in the deal.

The 20-year-old was dropped from Fiorentina’s squad for Sunday’s league clash with Torino by manager Raffaele Palladino.
Palladio’s decision suggests that talks with Brentford are currently at an advanced stage.
The right-back made 26 appearances for Fiorentina last season but struggled to get as much playing time since the arrival of Palladino, with Dodo considered the first-choice option in his position.
