Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka is in talks about joining Bundesliga club Augsburg on a season-long loan.

The Nigeria international, 26, has been frustrated with his fringe role in west London and is keen to earn more minutes away from the club on loan.

But Brentford also still regard Onyeka highly amid competition in their midfield and a loan move is increasingly becoming an option.

Augsburg seem the most viable option after Valencia fell away when closing in on a move for Aston Villa's Enzo Barrenechea instead.
