Brentford completed the signing of Antoni Milambo from Eredivisie club Feyenoord in July 2025.
The 20-year-old midfielder put pen to paper on a five-year contract with a club option of an additional year.
Milambo arrived in west London following a highly impressive 2024/25 campaign.
The Dutchman made 42 appearances for Feyenoord in all competitions, scoring seven goals and assisting eight. This included nine matches and four goal involvements (3G, 1A) in the UEFA Champions League.
A Netherlands Under-21 international, Milambo represented his nation on three occasions at the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Slovakia in summer 2025.
Milambo was in from the start as Michael Reiziger’s side lost 2-1 to eventual winners England in the semi-final.
“Antoni has played a lot of football in the last 12 months and really shot to prominence,” said head coach Keith Andrews.
“I love the way that Antoni takes the ball and drives; he has the ability to go past players and he’s a goal threat. He will complement the midfielders we have in the building.
“Now it’s just a case of getting him used to the intensity and rhythm of the Premier League and our own intensity levels. I am looking forward to working with him.”
Milambo made his professional debut for Feyenoord in a 3-0 UEFA Europa Conference League victory over Luzern in August 2021. At 16 years and 131 days, he became the club's youngest-ever player, taking the record from Georginio Wijnaldum.
He made his Eredivisie debut in April 2023, coming on as a substitute in a 3-1 win over Sparta Rotterdam. Milambo went on to play two more league games that season as Feyenoord earned their 16th title.
Milambo’s involvement increased during the 2023/24 campaign. He made 13 senior appearances and was on the bench as Feyenoord won the KNVB Cup by beating NEC 1-0 in the final in April 2024.
The following August, Milambo scored in a 4-4 draw with PSV in the Johan Cruyff Shield, before Feyenoord won the trophy on penalties.
In October 2024, the midfielder was named Player of the Match after scoring twice in Feyenoord’s 3-1 away win over Benfica in the Champions League.
Milambo departed Feyenoord having registered 17 goals involvements (8G, 9A) in 60 senior appearances.
