Josh Dasilva has signed a new contract with Brentford, which runs runs until next summer with the option for a further year.
The midfielder suffered a major knee injury in training and has been out since February, limiting him to just five appearances this term.
He was due to become a free agent this summer but the club had already agreed to fund his recovery whether or not a new deal was agreed.
He has now signed a new deal, and the club will have the option this time next year to extend it until summer 2026.
Dasilva has made 157 appearances for the Bees since joining from Arsenal in August 2018.
A hip injury kept him out for 12 months from February 2021 until February 2022, but an injury-free campaign last term saw him make 36 league appearances.
Brentford’s director of football, Phil Giles, said: “Josh has been so unlucky with injuries in recent seasons and hasn’t played anything like the number of matches he’d have wanted to.
“This makes him and us even more determined to get him back to full health. He has shown amazing mental strength and resilience to take this latest setback in his stride.
“At his best, Josh is a very good Premier League player with attributes that are hard to find elsewhere. I’m sure he’ll be back playing at some point in the 2024/25 season, and we can’t wait for that to happen.”
