According to The Telegraph, Brentford are keen for Romeo to extend his stay in West London.

The Bees reportedly want him to remain part of the B team set-up.

That could reportedly come in the form of a 12-month loan with an option to buy, or alternatively he could decide to return to the America.

Back in February, Romeo scored a dramatic 93rd minute winner to help Brentford B into the semi-finals of the Middlesex Senior Cup.
