Diagouraga played 20 times for Brentford during his loan spell

Brentford have signed midfielder Toumani Diagouraga from Peterborough on a three-year contract.

The French-born 23-year-old, who has joined for an undisclosed fee, spent the second half of last season on loan with the Bees.

Boss Andy Scott told the club website: "It is no secret that Toumani has been a long-term target of mine.

"I feel at his age and level of experience he will be a very important player for us now and in the future."

Diagouraga began his career as a trainee with Watford who loaned him to Swindon, Rotherham and Hereford during his time at Vicarage Road.

He joined the Bulls on a free transfer in July 2008 before moving to Peterborough 12 months later.
