Marcus Forss is closing in on a loan move to Championship side Hull City until the end of the season, subject to EFL approval.
The Finn has struggled for game time in Brentford's debut season in the Premier League, with only seven appearances so far.
Many Championship clubs made enquiries about his availability, but it appears Hull have won the race for his signature. The Tigers were taken over by Turkish businessman and entrepreneur Acun Ilıcalı last week, and appear to be looking up the table.
