Yarmoliuk signs new long-term Brentford dealpublished at 16:04 29 May

Brentford midfielder Yehor Yarmoliuk has signed a new long-term contract, keeping him at the club until 2031 with an option for an extra year.
The Ukraine international signed for the Bees in the summer of 2022 from SC Dnipro-1 and, after initially impressing for the B team and making his first team debut, signed a five-year deal in 2023.
Yarmoliuk made 35 appearances in all competitions in the 2024-25 campaign, with 31 coming in the Premier League.
The 21-year-old started nine of the final ten games of the season and made his senior Ukraine debut against Belgium in March.
"I am very happy to sign a new contract with the first team," he said on the deal. "It just gives me more energy to work even harder.
"I've really enjoyed the season, starting in the Premier League and making my senior Ukraine debut. I'm so proud of myself and just want to keep going.
"You always need to have something to improve. I want to improve everything in my game to take myself and the team to the next level.
"I am so grateful to the club for this, and it gives me more confidence and enjoyment in playing football."
"I'm so pleased," added Bees Thomas Frank.
"It's another big success story for the B team. Neil MacFarlane and his team did a great job to get him ready for the first team.
"He's started the last six games, which is his next step. He's a fantastic pressing player, he's dynamic, and he covers so much of the pitch.
"He's strong in duels and he has a drive to run forward. I like the way he distributes over the pitch.
"Yehor has a few development areas as he's still a young player, but he is another good example of a Brentford player who will make us better in the future and who will also get better himself."
