Brentford and Bournemouth have resumed negotiations over a potential move for Chris Mepham – and a deal now appears to be close.
Bournemouth had offers for the Hammersmith-born central defender rejected during the summer transfer window.

Southampton are also monitoring Mepham along with his Bees team-mate Ollie Watkins.
