The vacant position at Gtech Community Stadium is open to Brentford set-piece coach Keith Andrews.
The club’s representatives are understanding that the appointment is being discussed in good faith, and BBC Sport is aware of this.
Since Thomas Frank left for Tottenham Hotspur this month, the Bees have been searching for a replacement manager.

After winning 35 caps for the Republic of Ireland between 2020 and 23, Andrews served as Stephen Kenny’s assistant manager.
He also played for Hull City, MK Dons, and Blackburn Rovers before beginning his career with Wolverhampton Wanderers in 1999.
Ange Postecoglou, Kieran McKenna, and Francesco Farioli are other candidates who have been linked to the Brentford job.

An Azerbaijani national is being detained by Greek police after being alleged to have spied on a NATO base on the island of Crete.
The man was detained the day before on suspicion of espionage, according to local media reports on Monday. Authorities are reportedly looking into whether the case is connected to the recent arrest of a man suspected of having Azeri ancestry in Cyprus on suspicion of committing terrorism-related crimes linked to Iran.
According to broadcaster ERT, the 26-year-old was detained in Crete after being seen scouting the US’s Souda Bay air and naval base, citing police and intelligence sources.
Authorities claimed in the report that he had been seen filming warships entering and leaving the bay while photographing strategically sensitive locations.
The eastern Mediterranean base serves as a strategic US and NATO base.
Around 5,000 photos and videos were sequestered by the police. The suspect is scheduled to be detained by a public prosecutor, according to the news release.
A similar incident in Cyprus, where a man was detained for allegedly planning a “terrorist attack” on military installations, led to the arrest.
According to reports, the suspect is also alleged to be of Azeri descent and serves as the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)’s representative. He was traveling through a British passport, according to Cypriot media, who cited government sources.
Gideon Saar, Israel’s foreign minister, claimed the IRGC had made an attempt to attack Israelis on Saturday.
In the wake of the conflict between Israel and the US, and Iran, Cyprus and Crete are close to the Middle East and have recently been used as a transit point.
Reports of espionage being discovered have increased on both sides since the hostilities started.
Since Israel’s bombing campaign began on July 13 and several other people who had been detained in recent years have been executed by Iran, among others.
Mohammad-Amin Mahdavi Shayesteh was executed by Iran’s judiciary on Monday for “intelligence cooperation with the Zionist regime,” as Iran’s judiciary calls it.
Additionally, he was found guilty of working with Iran International, a London-based Persian-language TV station that Tehran perceived as having ties to Israel.
Majid Mosayebi was put to death the day before, after it was claimed that he had been proven to have collaborated with Mossad.
Three people were detained in the western province of Kermanshah on suspicion of espionage, according to officials in Tehran late on Sunday, including a person who was a citizen of a European nation.
According to officials, special judicial branches are now being planned for “extraordinary” espionage cases to be handled in provincial prosecutor’s offices and courts, according to officials.

Goodluck Iheanachor, the administrator’s chief security officer, Ahoada-East Local Government Area, Goodluck Iheanachor, has denied any involvement in the attack on the administrator.
Ekakita addressed the audience on Monday’s episode of The Morning Brief on Channels Television.
How would I go about doing that as the chief security officer? How would I go about attacking the man I’m working with by carrying hoodlums? He claimed that the video never contained me.
He claimed he was in his office when he heard a carousel and saw what was happening but was instructed not to interfere.

Ekakita remarked, “When I heard the noise of the political appointees that the sole administrator did not pay for the month of May when I barged in, I was told to shut the door, that it was between him and those political appointees.”
I never uploaded any videos or carried any hoodlums to attack him. Where did the chief of staff and I enter then?
Ihemnacho’s reported resignation was the result of controversy following a troubling video that emerged online that showed him being beaten by some people.
He was repeatedly struck with canes while voices off-camera yelled at him to “sign that thing” and put your signature as he was seen sitting on the floor, clearly distressed.
He appeared to be holding a pen while he was sat in front of him, a chair that contained two documents.
Mr. Alabi Umegbewe, the council secretary, was also dragged into the room and assaulted, later identified as the second man.
The Rivers State Police Command, therefore, criticized the violent attack and called it “heinous” and “reprehensible” in the aftermath.
A group of about 30 hoodlums stormed the council secretariat on June 20, 2025, according to a police statement that was made public on Sunday.
A group of about 30 hoodlums led by Mr. Hector Ekakita, the Chief Security Officer (CSO), and the Chief of Staff (COS), stormed the council secretariat and attacked him, according to the police statement, which read “in part”
Rivers State Police Command “rejects this repugnant act with impunity and has taken appropriate action.” After visiting the scene of the attack with the heads of other state-sponsored sister security organizations, the police commissioner, CP Olugbenga A. Adepoju, has directed the CSO, COS, and all those involved in this action to report to the Police State Headquarters, Moscow Road, Port Harcourt, for questioning.

He later told The Mirror that his relationship with Laura had left him feeling as though he’s “living the dream”. He said: “It’s going great, you know. She’s amazing and we are having a lot of fun. It feels like I’m living the dream.”
Adam, who starred on Love Island in 2018 and 2022, and also appeared on Celebs Go Dating, previously revealed how their relationship began months after the pair first met.
Speaking on the Getting Lippy Gossip Show, he revealed he walked past the Sky Sports star, heading to an interview, but admitted the pair didn’t interact for months.
So cute!
He explained: “I’d followed her on Instagram because I’d seen a Lionesses game or something like that and then I DMd her because she put like a funny meme on her story.”
Adam continued: “The funny part of the story is, for a football fan as well, I actually didn’t know who she was,’ Adam said. ‘Well I knew who she was as in I recognised and knew her face, but I didn’t know that was Laura Woods in terms of her.
“So I went in for a podcast… [and] she walked past me and the girl that was chaperoning us through was like, ‘That’s Laura Woods’ and I was like [shrugs] but she had her back turned to us, she was like miles behind us.” Adam then noted it was “fast forward months and months and months” before he tried his luck with the sports presenter.
Adam became a dad in January
In July last year, the couple announced they were expecting as Laura captioned a sweet snap of the couple holding their baby scan photo:: “Hey, baby,” alongside two pink hearts.
They were inundated by well wishes from their famous friends and followers as many told the pair how happy they were for them.
