Brentford secured the services of the seven-cap Nigerian international from Danish outfit FC Midtjylland last summer.
Last season Onyeka played 20 league matches for the Bees, was in action for 1,048 minutes and was yellow-carded four times.
Former Super Eagles striker Yakubu Aiyegbeni, who proved to be one of the best African exports to the Premier League, played for Middlesbrough.
