Brentford have completed the club-record signing of midfielder Mamadou Sangaré from Lens.
The 24-year-old has signed a five-year contract with the option for a further year for a fee of around £42m.
His arrival follows the departure of Jordan Henderson, who is expected to join Chelsea.
Brentford head coach Keith Andrews said: "Mamadou is someone that we've tracked for quite some time. He's been on our radar and was a player we were really keen to bring in.
"Last season was a huge season for him following a couple of loan spells during which he developed. At Lens, he performed at such a consistently high level for a team that finished second in the league.
