Truly sad to see Christian leave us. Has been inspirational for #brentfordfc and I remember being so excited when we signed him. A massive part of our success over the past six years and we were always weaker without him. Understand he can't turn down this chance & wish him well.
🚨 Arsenal have completed signing of Christian Norgaard from Brentford. Price for 31yo midfielder £10m + up to £2m bonuses. Medical / personal terms done. Announcement due this week. Viewed as good deal for #AFC, #BrentfordFC & Denmark int’l @TheAthleticFC

Great to see this analysis of #brentfordfc legend @PJansson5 Really interesting. Wish him a speedy recovery from injury.
In April, @ianwestbrook wrote about Aida, football's first AI pundit. Her presence on Sweden's coverage of the Allsvenskan has attracted a lot of controversy. Watch her below, analysing impact of Pontus Jansson absence for Malmo and see what you think.

Really enjoyed getting this fascinating story up on @ground_guru today - how a change in recruitment policy helped @GAEagles win their first major trophy since World War Two last season - the Dutch Cup. Gives hope to all smaller clubs!.

Had a fascinating chat with John Iga about innovation in football and how clubs can make best use of the government’s Research and Development Tax Credit Scheme. Made a nice feature for @ground_guru .

Michael Kayode's cameo display at Arsenal showed that if we sign him, he could provide real competition at right-back next season. But to be sure, he must start some #brentfordfc games now. More in my latest @BBCSport Bees fan writer piece. #BBCFootball

Given #brentfordfc run of fixtures - our next seven games against teams in top half of #PremierLeague - I don't think we'll end up qualifying for Europe. But I'm fine with that. More in my latest @BBCSport Bees fan writer column. #BBCFootball

Friday's win at Leicester showed just how much of a gap there is between established #PremierLeague clubs like #brentfordfc and those sides promoted more recently. More in my weekly @BBCSport Bees fan writer piece. #BBCFootball
