“It was an easy decision to bring him back last summer and he has completely justified that decision.
“He will always be welcome at the club and of course we shouldn’t rule out him coming back again sometime in the future.”
Giles concluded: “On behalf of everyone at Brentford I want to thank all the players who are leaving us this summer and wish them every success in the future.”
