Maupay, 27, was a Brentford participant between 2017 and 2019, having fun with the very best spell of his profession and hitting 25 league objectives within the Championship within the 2018/19 season.

His goalscoring output slowed after leaving the Bees for Brighton, and the objectives dried up additional after he joined Everton in 2022, for whom the striker scored simply as soon as in 30 appearances. Brentford re-signed him on the summer season switch deadline day, and he’s anticipated to make his second debut at Newcastle on Saturday night.

“It’s quite remarkable”, stated Frank. “I looked back four years ago when he was last year and Rico [Henry] was the only player left from that period. That tells us about the transformation of the club and team since he left.

“It’s fantastic to have Neal back. He’s a great character, a strong personality, a player that pushes every training and game and badly wants to win. He’s also matured. He lost his way a little bit, but there are always reasons for that. I am sure that together I can get the best out of Neal.

“I’m happy”, Frank stated of Brentford’s switch enterprise. “I think we had a very good window. We replaced a very good goalkeeper with another very good goalkeeper that is Holland’s No1, so very pleased with that.
