Brentford have appointed Keith Andrews as the club’s new head coach following Thomas Frank’s departure to Tottenham.
Andrews, 44, joined the Bees last summer to work under Frank as the club’s set-piece coach.
Having previously been on the coaching staff with Sheffield United, MK Dons and the Republic of Ireland, Andrews’ appointment is the Irishman’s first step into management.
Brentford considered a number of external candidates for the job including Ipswich Town’s Kieran McKenna and Francesco Farioli, who left Ajax last month.
