Ben Wilson has joined Brentford B on a permanent deal from Glenavon.
The midfielder comes to west London on a two-year deal, which will see the 18-year-old in a Bees shirt until at least the summer of 2028.
Wilson featured 14 times for Glenavon in the Northern Ireland Premiership, Irish Cup and Mid Ulster Cup last season, registering two goals and an assist in 884 first-team minutes.
He brings with him youth national team experience, having represented Northern Ireland at Under-17 level in friendlies and Euro qualification games in 2025.
Brentford B head coach Sam Saunders said: “We’re really pleased to get Ben into the B team. He came over for a short trial period and showed his qualities, a really coachable lad that works really hard.
“Being so young, there’s lots of development areas that we feel we can help. He’s tenacious, a box-to-box midfielder that wants to win his duels and can help the team without the ball but also can break into the box with his energy and create and score goals.
“We’re looking forward to getting him in, seeing him improve and add competition for places in what’s going to be a really testing season this year.”
