Brentford have approached Liverpool over signing goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher - as Bayer Leverkusen close in on Mark Flekken.
The west London club are open to selling Flekken to the German club, who have just appointed Erik ten Hag as manager, and discussions are also underway to that end.
Brentford have been interested in Kelleher since before they signed Flekken but Liverpool have only been open to selling him since securing Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia last summer.

Kelleher is understood to want to compete for a starting place and the arrival of Mamardashvili means it is the Georgian who will be competing with Alisson next season.
Other clubs are interested in the 26-year-old Kelleher but Brentford are believed to be in pole position and have a strong relationship with Liverpool, having secured Sepp van den Berg from Anfield last summer.
