Former Coventry City defender Stephen Wright, who was released by Coventry at the end of the last season, now plays for Brentford.
After his contact with Coventry expired he was without a club for a few months even though he had trials with several clubs. He eventually signed a short term contract with Brentford, but he still lives in Coventry and has to commute to Brentford every day.
Since he joined the League One side, he has helped to bolster their defence and is hoping to be able to extend his contract.
Speaking to the Richmond and Twickenham Times, Wright said, "The travelling has been a bit of nightmare, but I'm back playing football and back doing what I want to do."
"We'll see what happens in January and maybe we can extend my deal or something like that. The hardest thing is having my family back in Coventry. Me and my wife Sarah's other family is in Liverpool, so when I'm away there is no support for her."
"It is hard but I want to play and the boys here have given me that chance and now I'm trying to repay them by giving something back. I'd love to stay. It is a great bunch of lads and the gaffer has been great. They have been good to me."
