Brentford have signed Rochdale midfielder Ethan Brierley.
Brierley is to be registered with the B Team for the new season.
Head coach Neil MacFarlane told the club's website: Ethan is a terrific talent. He has a real eagerness to improve himself every single day out on the grass. He comes to us having played men's football at a young age.
"He played for a Rochdale side that have had a difficult season, but he was still able to flourish and perform at such a high level to assist, score, and be creative from the middle of the park.
We're hugely excited to play a role in the next stage of his development. He is an all-round midfielder who will handle the ball and he's somebody we will look to improve, as we do with all of the players who step foot in the building."
