Brentford have handed a rare week off to the handful of players not away on international duty, according to BBC News.
With most Premier League squads stripped bare during this break, the Bees are no exception — the majority of their first-team squad have linked up with their countries. Left behind at the club's training base are around a dozen players, including striker Callum Wilson and forward Igor Thiago, among five others not called up for their respective nations.
Rather than keep the group ticking over with routine sessions, Brentford have opted to give them some downtime, according to the report, allowing players like Wilson and Thiago a breather before club football resumes.
