Brentford should look to bolster their attacking options with the signing of Fulham striker Cauley Woodrow.
Brentford should make an offer for Fulham striker Cauley Woodrow, as the Bees look to add to their forward options.
Woodrow, who is in the England under-21 squad, may have to consider his immediate future being away from Craven Cottage after failing to force his way into the first-team plans of current Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic.
Woodrow joined Fulham from Luton Town in 2011 aged just 16
Woodrow was signed for a six-figure sum from Luton Town aged just 16 and has played 65 games for the Cottagers, scoring 12 goals. The 22-year-old has failed to hold down a regular starting place during his six year stint at Craven Cottage.
He is highly-rated at the club but despite his obvious talent, Jokanovic does not see him as a long-term solution up front for Fulham. Despite being short of options in the forward areas, the Serb will be willing to listen to offers for Woodrow.
The centre-forward spent the second half of the season on loan at Burton Albion, where he impressed many, and his five goals in 19 appearances for the club helped the Brewers seal unlikely Championship survival.

With question marks surrounding his future, Brentford would be wise to make a move for Woodrow from their West London rivals.
The Bees are limited with options up front at Griffin Park, Lasse Vibe and Philipp Hofmann are the two-recognised out-and-out strikers in the first-team fold.
Brentford would be able to secure the services of Woodrow for a nominal, but affordable fee. He still has plenty of time to realise his potential and become a top quality forward at Championship level, at least.
Whether this happens or not remains to be seen, however what is certain, it is time for Woodrow to kick start his career.
