Meghoma is a highly regarded young talent but had just one year left on his deal at St Mary's before agreeing on a move.

He has made made four senior appearances in the cup competitions at Saints but is yet to play an English league match.

Brentford, meanwhile, have selection problems at full-back with Scotland international Aaron Hickey ruled out for most of the season with a hamstring injury and Rico Henry having yet made his comeback from a serious knee injury.
