Versatile defender Maxwell McKnight put pen to paper on a contract with Brentford in September 2025.

A member of Tottenham’s youth set-up from Under-12s until Under-21s, McKnight was released at the end of the 2024/25 season.

He joined Brentford B on trial ahead of the 2025/26 season, impressing en route to signing a contract with the club.

McKnight kicked-off the 2025/26 pre-season strongly, providing an assist for Michel Boni in a 2-1 defeat to AFC Wimbledon.
