Brentford head coach Keith Andrews has signed a new contract with the club, running until 2032.
The Irishman has impressed since stepping up from his role as set-piece coach to replace Thomas Frank in June, with the Bees sitting seventh in the Premier League and eyeing European qualification for the first time in their history.
Andrews, 45, who played in the top flight for Blackburn and West Brom, has also guided the Brentford to the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Brentford‘s director of football Phil Giles said Andrews has proven to be a “really good fit for the club” after an “outstanding” first season at the helm.
“When Keith accepted the job last summer, he signed a three-year contract, but the intention was always that we’d review this at the earliest opportunity,” added Giles.
“Given our progress this season, I’m really happy that we have agreed this extension within the first nine months.”
