Lasse Vibe in talks to leave Brentford for Yanbian FC

Lasse Vibe is negotiating a move to Yanbian FC, according to Sky sources

Brentford striker Lasse Vibe is in talks over a move to Chinese club Yanbian FC, according to Sky sources.

Yanbian play in the second tier of Chinese football after being relegated from the Super League last year.

The Bees have been listening to offers this month for Vibe, whose contract expires in the summer.

Speaking after Brentford's 1-0 loss to Norwich on Saturday, manager Dean Smith said: "Lasse Vibe is negotiating with another club. If he goes it will because he agrees the deal and because the club agrees."

The Denmark international, 30, has scored 37 goals in 97 appearances since moving to Griffin Park from IFK Gothenburg in 2015.

Brentford have completed one deal so far in the January window, with Denmark U21 forward Emiliano Marcondes arriving from Nordsjaelland on a three-and-a-half year deal.

Marcondes signed a pre-contract agreement with the Sky Bet Championship side back in July 2017 and joins the club after his Nordsjaelland contract expired on 31 December 2017.
