Brentford face a battle to keep hold of experienced defender Pontus Jansson.

In his first season in the Premier League, the Swede has been outstanding for the Bees and has won admirers up and down the country.

The Guardian says Leicester City, Everton and Newcastle United are all keen to take Jansson off Brentford's hands.

The 30 year-old's current deal expires in June and it's claimed Brentford are willing to consider offers in January.

Jansson has made 16 appearances for Brentford this season.
