BRENTFORD boss Thomas Frank praised Romeo Beckham and suggested he could stay beyond his loan spell from Inter Miami.
Romeo, who is the son of Manchester United legend David, has been training with the Bees’ B side since the conclusion of the MLS season in September.
And the winger will further his development in west London until the end of the Premier League campaign after impressing Frank and his coaching staff.
The Danish tactician described the 20-year-old as an “interesting” as well as “promising” player and confirmed there will be opportunities to break into the first team.
Frank said: “Yeah, I’ve seen him.. I think he’s an interesting player.
“We hope, of course, like a lot of others that he can make it to the first team.

“Yeah, [he is] promising. Anyone who has got a contract here – be it a permanent deal or loan deal – there is always the opportunity to stay, of course.”
Romeo has been with his dad’s MLS side since 2021 and has made 26 appearances for the second side – who play in the third tier – scoring two goals along the way.
Proud father David congratulated his son on Instagram as he posted: “Exciting start to the year. Now the hard work and fun begins. Proud of you mate.”
Romeo told Brentford’s official website after signing: “I’m very proud and very happy to be here.

“I came here at the start to keep fit during the off-season. The chance then came to come on loan here and I’ve never been so excited.
“It was a fun season [in the US] and there were a lot of ups and downs but I’m excited to come here and see what I can do.”
