Kyreece Lisbie is thrilled to make the move to Brentford.
His dad Kevin had a career with Charlton Athletic in the Premier League, whilst also featuring for Colchester United, Ipswich Town and Leyton Orient amongst others. Not to mention, Kyreece also has a twin brother, Kyrell, who is also trying to forge a career in the game.
The 18-year-old and his twin have been together on the pitch up until they both departed Watford this summer and Kyreece made the switch to join the B Team at Brentford. Kyreece has suffered his fair share of setbacks at other clubs but feels that the environment at Brentford could be perfect for his development.
“I don't have words to describe how happy I am," the young winger told the Brentford website. "The journey of getting here, I'm grateful for the opportunity that Neil (MacFarlane) has given me to come and play for Brentford B.
“I've faced so many rejections in my career. Leyton Orient, Colchester United and Millwall. I found my breakthrough at Watford as a second year scholar but unfortunately at the end of the season we (Kyreece and Kyrell) didn't get a professional contract. I really thought I was going to get it so it was a really hard moment. Going into the office and to be told I wasn't getting a contract was a really heartbreaking moment. I've found a way to bounce back and I'm so grateful for this opportunity."
