Brentford boss Thomas Frank is delighted with the form this season of Mathias Zanka Jørgensen.
Zanka won a new deal after being released at the end of last season.
Frank said, “Zanka is someone we have been happy with. He has filled his role fantastically for the last two years. He has just been part of a relatively successful Brentford side who have just picked up ten points.
“He has done really well and helped the team when it was needed. He is good for the training and the culture, so I am really satisfied with him.
“It clearly requires something special to be able to just step in and perform at the highest level. This is something that Zanka has had throughout his career.
“He has done excellently for us, so it is very impressive. He has played a really important role again this year. Zanka has a mentality where he has great faith in his own abilities, which is an important thing to have in life. So he has an important gift.”
