Brentford won promotion to the Premier League for the first time in 2021 following a Championship playoff win over Swansea City. There has been gradual improvement ever since, with a 13th place finish in 2022 being followed up by a top half final position of 9th in 2023. Backed by business mogul, Matthew Benham, Brentford operate as closely to the ‘moneyball’ philosophy as possible, preferring to find players from nations outside of the major European leagues and selling them for profit.
