Nigeria international defender Benjamin Fredrick was missing from the squad of Brentford that defeated Wycombe Wanderers 4-1 in a pre season friendly game, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Back from a loan spell in Belgium with FC Dender, The defender who is now a full member of the first team was conspicuously missing from the team despite taking part in their pre season camp in Portugal.
Fredrick from what we gathered is being introduced slowly into the physical demands of getting stucked in contacts, after spending the entirety of the second half of last season on the treatment table.
Although he is back to his physical best, the team feels rushing him could prove counter productive and have decided to manage his work load for another week, before he will get the final go ahead to play games.
He will start the season at the club, and barring a last minute change of mind he will be involved in cup games and also games in the English Premier League.
