Brentford Football Club is delighted to announce that Rico Henry has signed a new long-term contract with the club. The 25-year-old left-back has been a key player for the Bees since joining from Walsall in 2016, and has played a major role in the club's promotion to the Premier League.

Henry has made over 200 appearances for Brentford, and has won the club's Player of the Year award twice. He is a regular in the England Under-21 squad, and has been linked with a move to a number of top clubs in recent months.

However, Henry has now pledged his future to Brentford, signing a new contract that will keep him at the club until 2027. The defender said that he is "delighted" to have signed the new deal, and that he is "excited" about the future of the club.

Brentford manager Thomas Frank said that he is "thrilled" that Henry has signed a new deal, and that he is a "key part" of the club's plans.

"Rico is a fantastic player, and I'm delighted that he has signed a new contract with us," Frank said. "He is a key part of our team, and I'm excited to see what he can achieve in the future."

Henry's new contract is a major boost for Brentford, who are preparing for their first season in the Premier League. The defender is one of the most talented young left-backs in England, and he will be a key player for the Bees in the top flight.
