Thomas Frank the head coach of newly promoted English Premier League side Brentford has hinted at the role new signing Frank Onyeka will play when they take on Arsenal in Friday’s first game of the English Premier League new season.
Onyeka was signed from Midtjylland of Denmark after proving himself as one of the best in his role in the League and so far he hasn’t looked out of place in pre season game.
On Friday, they will take on Arsenal in the opening game of the new English Premier League season and Onyeka is expected to play some part in the game as they kickstart their adventure in the top division of English football.
While speaking on the qualities of the one cap Nigeria international, Frank said Onyeka suits the style of Brentford’s pattern of play but he could also play other roles base on how they are set up.
“I am looking forward to getting Frank in the building. We think he is a strong addition to the squad, and we are looking forward to working with him. He is a very dynamic player”, he told the club’s website.
“Frank plays as an eight in our system, he is very good at getting from box to box and will be valuable to us when we don’t have the ball. He has come from the Danish league and was one of the best midfield players in that league, we think he has the potential to develop further. All the coaches here are looking forward to working with Frank and pushing him to a higher level.”
