He made an emotional comeback to the sports when he signed for Brentford during the January transfer window. However, he has played back-to-back 90 minutes for the Bees in the Premier League and got himself an assist in the last league game against Burnley.
He is expected to feature in the friendly games against Holland and Serbia on March 26th and March 29th respectively.
