The left-back has been allocated a squad number after travelling to Spain for the summer training camp and being involved in all the Bees' pre-season friendlies so far. "Ryan is one who I knew about last season as a first year. He came to Spain with us and fitted in fantastically well," boss Andy Scott told the Hounslow Chronicle. "He'll be training with the first team every day, and playing in the reserves. He'll only play FA Youth Cup games. "Ryan's got a squad number now and I imagine that if we were in League Two then he would be someone we could rely on. "We'll see how he develops. It's a great opportunity for him and I think he's got a bright future."
