Kayode (undisclosed) is back in training and questionable for Saturday's match against Burnley, according to manager Keith Andrews. "Michael is back in training; we'll see how he is tomorrow. I think he should be in and around it. He just picked up a little knock, and it wasn't quite right to have him involved last weekend."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Manchester United interested?
DBrentford
February 8, 2026
Manchester United are believed to be interested in Kayode, according to TEAMTalk.
ANALYSIS
Kayode is a strong candidate to leave Brentford in the summer, and some of the best clubs in the Premier League are keeping close tabs on the 21-year-old defender. Manchester City are tracking him, but Manchester United and Newcastle also want him. Manchester United already have Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui for the right-back, but one of them would have to leave in order to make room Kayode, an Italy U21 international.
