DONE DEAL: ​Brentford sign ex-Huddersfield stopper Jorgensen on free transfer | OneFootball

Brentford have secured the signing of Denmark defender Mathias Jorgensen.

The 31-year-old has signed for the Bees on a one-year contract, which is subject to international clearance.

The central defender, who is called Zanka, left Turkish outfit Fenerbahce in the summer, allowing him to sign on a free with Brentford.

The newly promoted Premier League club will be hoping his previous experience in the division with Huddersfield from 2017 to 2019 will stand him in good stead this term.

Brentford boss Thomas Frank said: "We are pleased that we could strengthen our squad and bring in a top quality experienced player to the group. This was especially important after Mads Bech picked up an injury.

"Zanka brings a wealth of experience from different leagues and a lot of international games, he has also played in the Premier League before."
