Preston North End can confirm that Theo Mawene has completed a move to Premier League side Brentford.
The North End academy graduate makes the switch south with the Bees paying a significant undisclosed fee which increases based on future success and PNE would also receive a percentage of any future sell on fee.
The younger brother of current North End midfielder Noah and son of 2000s defensive stalwart Youl, the 17-year-old made his senior bow in a 3-0 defeat to Leicester City in April 2024 to become the seventh-youngest player in the club’s history and the latest member of the Mawene family to represent the club.
The second of his two senior appearances came when he replaced Stefán Thórdarson as a substitute in last season’s FA Cup quarter-final tie against Aston Villa.
Becoming a key player for the club’s youth team, Mawene scored and starred in last season’s unforgettable 4-1 FA Youth Cup victory against Liverpool at Deepdale.
Everyone at Preston North End would like to wish Theo all the very best on his move to the Gtech Community Stadium.
