Mark Flekken, a goalkeeper from the Netherlands, has signed a four-year deal with Brentford.
The acquisition of the four-time international Flekken from Bundesliga club Freiburg is pending international clearance and work authorization.
Thomas Frank, the head coach, expressed his happiness at signing Mark on the official Brentford website.
He is a player of great quality who will improve our goalkeepers.
He joins us following two successful seasons with Freiburg, who have just had a standout season in the Bundesliga, finishing fifth and qualifying for the Europa League. He has a wealth of experience.
He was a significant member of the team there, and now he is joining us. Hopefully, he will improve the group and the squad.
He is adept at stopping shots and at playing with the ball in his hands. His distribution is outstanding.
Before relocating to Germany, Flekken began his career in his home Netherlands at RKVV WDZ and Roda. He has since played for Alemannia Aachen, Greuther Furth, Duisburg, and Freiburg.
The 29-year-old made his Netherlands debut in March 2022 and recorded the most clean sheets in the Bundesliga last season with 13 in 34 games.
After four excellent seasons in West London, Brentford goalkeeper David Raya may leave the team this summer, according to Frank.
To sign the 27-year-old Spaniard, Frank cautioned interested parties that it would cost them £40 million.
Mark Flekken, a goalkeeper from the Netherlands, has been officially signed by Brentford from Freiburg.
As soon as David Raya announced his intention to go to fight for titles and in Europe, the Bees worked quickly to secure a long-term replacement.
The Spain international's price tag has been publicly set at £40 million by Brentford, and according to 90 Minutes, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur are all interested in signing him.
Raya's contract with Brentford expires in 2024, but the club won't feel obliged to sell him at that point.
