Romeo Beckham has signed a permanent deal with Brentford after impressing on loan from Inter Miami in the second half of last season.
The 20-year-old joins Brentford B after playing 15 times for the side during his loan stint, scoring once, signing a one-year deal with the club having an option for a further year.
Neil MacFarlane is in charge of Brentford B and is glad to keep hold of Beckham, son of the former and superstar.
‘We added Romeo to our squad in January and he’s been fantastic for the group,’ said MacFarlane. ‘He’s had a terrific end to the season in terms of his recent match against where he showed what he’s learned during his loan with us.
‘We’ve continued to develop him in and out of possession and we look forward to him coming back in good spirits to continue working with him next season.’
The young forward, who spent time in Arsenal’s academy earlier in his career, said of his permanent deal: ‘The best feeling, honestly, so excited. Ready to get started and have a good next season.
‘It’s been such a good experience, loved every second of it. Good group of boys, good coaches, it’s just a really nice place to be.’
When he initially signed for Brentford on loan in January, Beckham said: ‘I came here at the start to keep fit during the off-season. The chance then came to come on loan here, and I’ve never been so excited.
‘It was a fun season [in the USA] and there were a lot of ups and downs, but I’m excited to come here and see what I can do.
‘They’ve (the coaches) helped me massively over the last couple of months, and I’m excited to see what else they can help me with to really progress in football.
‘If you look at Brentford as a club, it’s very positive, and it’s a club that is on the rise very quickly. I’m very grateful to be here.’
