Thomas Frank has confirmed that Mads Roerslev is available for Brentford's visit to Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

The right-back, who has made 18 appearances this season, has missed the last three games with a hamstring issue.

When asked about how the players on international duty have returned, Frank responded: “All of them are available for Saturday. 

“And Mads Roerslev is available again. That’s some positive news.”

However, Frank also confirmed that centre-back Kristoffer Ajer is still unavailable.

The Norwegian wasn't involved for his country over the international break and missed the Bees' 1-1 draw with Leicester City at the Gtech Community Stadium two weeks ago.

“He’s got a minor injury, a calf injury," said Frank.

When questioned if there was a time frame as to when Ajer might be back, Frank replied: “No, but hopefully we are aiming for him to be back this season.” 

Finally, the Bees boss was asked for an update on Keane Lewis-Potter.

Frank confirmed earlier this month that the forward had picked up an injury that could see him miss the rest of the campaign.

"That’s a knee injury, so a little bit longer. We don't know exactly if this is the whole season," he said.

“He’s still progressing in the right direction, so that's good."
