Brentford set to be beat Everton, Wolves and West Ham in £16m transfer race for Hull ace Keane Lewis-Potter
BRENTFORD are leading the race to sign Hull City ace Keane Lewis-Potter and have submitted a fresh £16million bid.
The Bees have been tracking the forward, 21, for around 18 months and had an approach knocked back by the Championship club in January.
However, boss Thomas Frank has pushed again to land the England U21 international.
There is hope that a deal can be struck in the near future.
The West Londoners have lodged a new £16million offer which includes further add-ons as they look to beat Premier League rivals to the signing of Lewis-Potter.
Brentford chiefs are hoping for a response this week.

The Bees are still awaiting a decision from Christian Eriksen as to whether he wants to stay at the Brentford Community Stadium for next season.
Eriksen shone on loan after making his return to football following a heart attack with Frank's side, but is a target for a number of Premier League clubs, including Manchester United.
