Lorient winger Yoane Wissa is on the brink of signing for Brentford.
Sky Sports says Brentford are close to completing a deal to sign Wissa, who was last month the victim of an alleged acid attack.
The Congo international is a long-term target for the Bees, having tried to get him in January, and they have agreed a fee with the French club, with Wissa now in London.
However, the 24-year-old is yet to undergo a medical and has recently been recovering from surgery after acid was thrown in his face and eyes.
According to widespread reports in France, a woman has been arrested and charged in relation to the incident.
