Brentford boss Keith Andrews expressed his delight at the signing, stating that the team is "really happy" to have Ouattara on board. Andrews explained that the team was aware of Ouattara's potential and was eager to secure his services once it became clear that he might be available.
Andrews praised Ouattara's Premier League experience, highlighting that despite being young, he has already shown his capabilities in the top flight. However, Andrews noted that Ouattara has not yet found his rhythm due to a lack of consistent game time. He believes that Ouattara will thrive in Brentford's playing style, which suits his skills and will complement the team's existing forward line.
Bees football chief Phil Giles also commented on the signing, stating that the team has been looking to replace attacking player Bryan Mbeumo, who left the club earlier. Giles expressed confidence in the team's ability to bring in strong replacements, citing Ouattara as the latest example. He also highlighted the squad's overall strength, mentioning players such as Aaron Hickey, Rico Henry, and Igor Thiago who are fit and ready to contribute.
Giles expressed his excitement to see Ouattara on the pitch and bringing his unique skillset to the team. He believes that the signing will be a great addition to the squad and will provide fans with an entertaining experience.
