Thomas Frank has delivered an update ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Arsenal.

The Bees boss says that Sergi Canos and Kristoffer Ajer are both available after long lay-offs with injury, but this weekend will come 'too soon' for Ethan Pinnock and Christian Norgaard.

"Christian Norgaard will still be out," Thomas said.

"With Ethan, it will probably be too soon, but he is training fully so that is really positive news.

"And Sergi Canos, he'll be available."

On Ethan, Thomas added: "After the international break, I'll have a bigger belief we can involve him in the squad.

"He's training fully, he's looking to be in a good place, so it's just about finding the right time.

"I'm convinced that in a couple of weeks and hopefully a friendly during the international break will help him."

One centre-back who will be available is Kristoffer, who is yet to make a First Team appearance this season.

But Thomas says he may have to wait for his first Premier League appearance of the campaign, due to the good form of Ben Mee, Pontus Jansson and Zanka.

When asked if Kristoffer will come straight into the starting XI, his boss stated: "I think he needs to wait and be patient!

"We have done well and played well - Pontus, Ben and Zanka have all done well when they play.

"We are in a privileged position where there is big, big competition between the defenders, there's no doubt about that."
