Ghoddos signed for the Bees from French side Amiens in September 2020. He initially joined on loan, with the deal made permanent in January 2021. The 29-year-old has played 86 games for Brentford and scored five goals. “Saman has been a pleasure to work with,” said head coach Thomas Frank, “he was part of the group that gained promotion to the Premier League and has been a valuable member of the squad during the following two seasons. “Whenever he has been called upon, and wherever he has been asked to play, Saman has never let us down. He is a top professional and a top person. “At this stage of his career, it’s so important that Saman has regular game time. We cannot offer Saman the minutes that he desires, so it is with sadness that we have all decided that he should have the chance to pursue new opportunities as a free agent. “I wish Saman the best of luck for the future and thank him for his efforts during his time with us.”
