Brentford head coach, Thomas Frank is pleased with Frank Onyeka’s contract extension.

Onyeka has indeed become a crucial player for the club since signing in July 2021, making significant contributions to their success in the Premier League.

The Nigerian international has played 41 Premier League games since his arrival from Danish side Midtjylland two years ago.

“During both seasons he has been unlucky with injuries, which prevented him from taking an even bigger step forward in terms of minutes, but I really like his energy,” The gaffer said.

“Frank is a great pressing player. He runs into the half-spaces and in behind, progressing up the pitch.

“He’s a very important player for us and we’re looking forward to continuing the journey with him.”

Onyeka put pen to paper for a new four-year contract with an option for an additional year with the club.
