A number of Brentford have taken to Twitter to comment on the news that Moses Odubajo has joined Sheffield Wednesday following his departure from Griffin Park.

The 25-year-old right-back, released by the Bees at the end of last season, has signed a two-year contract at Hillsborough and becomes the Owls’ second summer signing after Julian Borner.

Odubajo started his career with Leyton Orient in League One, featuring over 100 times for the O’s before securing a switch to Brentford in 2014.

The following year he was signed by Hull City – then managed by current Wednesday boss Steve Bruce – and he played a big part in their promotion to the Premier League via the playoffs in 2016.

In August 2018, Odubajo rejoined Brentford on a free transfer and signed a one-year deal with the option of a further year, and he proved useful for Thomas Frank’s side, making 35 appearances for the Bees last term.

Although the versatile player, who can also play on the wing, was released after Brentford chose not to take up the option of a further year, plenty of their fans were pleased with his output last term – as well as during his first spell – and wished him all the best.

Here is some of the reaction on the social media platform:
