Brentford midfielder Josh Dasilva has signed a new contract that will keep him with the Championship club until the summer of 2024.

The England Under-21 player joined the Bees from Arsenal in 2018 and has since played 75 games for the club.

"Our staff have worked with Josh over the past few years and he's a very influential player in the Championship," boss Thomas Frank said.

"He can dictate a game and score goals. I expect there is even more to come."

After making his debut for the club in November 2018, Dasilva has been at the heart of the Bees' line-up ever since.

He has made 13 appearances at various youth levels for England and in 2017 he was part of the side that won the UEFA European Under-19 Championships.

Last month he scored the first league goal for the Bees at their new stadium as they beat Huddersfield Town 3-0.

Meanwhile, Bees forward Halil Dervisoglu has joined Dutch Eredivisie side FC Twente on loan for the rest of the season.

The 20-year-old Turkey Under-21 international has not scored in eight outings since his move to west London in January.
