Two men, aged 19 and 21, have been charged with murder after a 20-year-old was stabbed to death in Sydney's west earlier this year.

The victim, named in media reports as George Garmo, was found dead in the driveway of a home in Bossley Park in mid-February.

Police have now charged two men in relation to the attack.

The 19-year-old was arrested in Edensor Park on Thursday afternoon shortly after the 21-year-old was arrested in Bossley Park.

Both men were refused bail and are scheduled to appear in Liverpool Local Court on Friday.

At the time of his death friends paid tribute to Mr Garmo on social media.

"A brother got murdered last night. A very close brother," wrote Rich le on Facebook.

"How many brothers fell victim to the streets. Rest in peace young brother."
