Crystal Palace have enquired about signing Brentford striker Scott Hogan, according to Sky sources.

It is understood the Eagles and one other Championship club made initial contact with the Bees over the weekend.

Hogan, 24, remains a target for West Ham but manager Slaven Bilic is currently undecided about making another approach after talks over a deal broke down earlier this month.

Sky Sports News HQ understands the two clubs agreed to a £9m payment up front but disagreed on added bonuses.

Brentford want a further £6m to meet their £15m valuation of the player, but West Ham have so far only offered a further £3m.

Hogan himself is keen on the move and has missed three Brentford games this month against Eastleigh in the FA Cup, and Newcastle and Wigan in the Championship.

He came on as a second-half substitute in the 4-0 FA Cup fourth-round defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
