OFFICIAL: Brentford extend Pinnock until 2027


This Sunday, Brentford's 30-year-old central defender Ethan Pinnock confirmed his contract extension. His contract will be extended from 2023 to June 30, 2027.


Pinnock has represented Dulwich Hamlet, Holmsdale, Forest Green Rovers and Barnsley in England's low-level leagues for a long time, and moved to Brentford in July 2019.


According to official statistics, Pinnock has played 154 times since joining the "Bee" in 2019, including 61 Premier League games . He has 14 goals and 9 assists.


Brentford coach Thomas Frank expressed his joy at Pinnock's contract extension. He said frankly, "Ethan's contract extension is good news for Brentford. I am very happy that Ethan will continue to work with us for another 4 years, and I believe our fans will too."


The Danish coach then added Pinnock's role and contribution to the team: "In the past four years, Ethan has always been a mountain in our defense. He played a key role in our promotion to the top half of the Premier League standings. He's a top player and a good guy."


"He fits seamlessly into the Premier League. It's an amazing story for him and for football that he can go from non-league to top-flight so quickly."


"He's proven to be a typical Brentford signing. He's taken up every challenge he's been put in and we think he has a lot more to develop."


"For us, his role in the penalty area is very important. He defends very well in the air and on the ground, and also plays a key role in our set-pieces. I think we will see him more next season. Lots of goals."


Thomas Frank finally said: "Ethan is very reliable and consistent for us, and I believe this will continue. He will spend the golden period of his personal career with us, and we are very grateful to him for helping the team in the next few years. Expect success.”
