Spanish La Liga club Valencia has expressed strong interest in Frank Onyeka, according to reports.

The Super Eagles midfielder is looking for a move away from Brentford this summer in search of more regular playing time.

Onyeka, 26, has struggled to secure a consistent role at the Premier League side since his arrival.

He has made 26 appearances for Brentford, but only 11 of those were starts, with the remaining 15 coming from the bench.

This season, Onyeka has yet to start a league match, with his only start coming in the League Cup.

Reports from the BBC revealed that Valencia are interested in acquiring the player on a loan deal.

However, Brentford are said to prefer a permanent transfer to reinvest the funds into their squad.

In addition to Valencia, other clubs reportedly showing interest in Onyeka include Real Valladolid, Las Palmas, Italian side Lecce, and Russian outfit CSKA Moscow.
