Frank Onyeka: Brentford set to sign Nigeria international from FC Midtjylland

Brentford are set to sign Frank Onyeka from FC Midtjylland subject to a work permit.

The 23-year-old has agreed to join the Bees from their sister club in Denmark following positive talks.

Onyeka – a Nigeria international – is likely to remain in Denmark during the work-permit process, where he can complete a medical and stay fit with his current club until it is issued.

Sky Sports News revealed last week that Onyeka was in talks over a move to the newly-promoted Premier League side.

A deal between the clubs is a formality to conclude because they are both owned by Matthew Benham.

Right-back Henrik Dalsgaard has moved in the opposite direction to Midtjylland, and attacker Emiliano Marcondes has left the club, while top-goalscorer Ivan Toney is being tracked by other clubs.
