Milambo has a strong background, having made 60 appearances for Feyenoord in the Eredivisie. His decision to join Brentford was unexpected, as he had other options available to him.

The club's director of football, Phil Giles, and manager Keith Andrews played key roles in convincing Milambo to sign with the Bees. Brentford's data-driven approach and technical director Lee Dykes' detailed analysis of Milambo's strengths and weaknesses likely contributed to the successful negotiation.

Milambo has been in talks with the club since April, and it's clear that he was impressed by the team's vision. The Netherlands Under-21 international is expected to bring creative talent to the side, which is crucial for the club's success in the new campaign.
