Taylor started his career at Bolton

Burton Albion have offered a contract to Brentford winger Cleveland Taylor.

The 26-year-old, who spent the second half of last season on loan with the Brewers, is on the Bees transfer list.

Manager Paul Peschisolido told BBC Radio Derby: "We started negotiations and I'm waiting for him to come back to me. He'd be a fantastic acquisition.

"We have to hope we can come to some sort of agreement. It's going to be a waiting game and I know there are other clubs showing an interest."

Former Scunthorpe and Carlisle player Taylor scored four goals in 24 appearances for Burton, sparking interest from elsewhere.

"I hope that he sees what we're trying to do here because he's got the right mentality and he's the type of player we'd like to bring," Peschisolido added.

"Sometimes players can be gambles so you want to bring someone who's already here and knows what we're about."
