Brentford will reportedly sack manager Mark Warburton at the end of the season, despite the club challenging for a place in the Premier League.
The 52-year-old succeeded Uwe Rosler at Griffin Park in December 2013 and went on to guide the Bees into the Championship last season by finishing runners-up to Wolverhampton Wanderers in League One.
Warburton has led the West London side into the Championship playoff places in their first season back in the second tier for 21 years.
It is thought that Warburton will be dismissed even if he leads the club into the Premier League for the first time in their history.
According to The Times, Brentford owner Matthew Benham has made it clear that he is determined to pursue a new direction, despite the club's progress under their former sporting director.
The report adds that Benham has his eye on appointing Rayo Vallecano coach Paco Jemez as Warburton's replacement.
Brentford last played in the top flight in the 1946-47 season.
