"Igor Thiago is attracting interest from top clubs The attacker has scored eight league goals in 11 appearances, a record which is only behind Manchester City's Erling Haaland. A transfer battle could be on the horizon in the Premier League, with Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Tottenham Hotspur all expressing interest in Brentford striker Igor Thiago, according to reports from Trivela and ESPN Brazil."
"All three clubs are believed to have made initial enquiries regarding the Brazilian forward's availability and price tag ahead of the January transfer window. However, early indications suggest that Brentford have no intention of parting ways with their top scorer midway through the season. The forward's form has drawn the attention of several scouts across Europe, but it is the Premier League trio who have shown the most concrete interest."
"More than Newcastle, the interest from Aston Villa and Spurs makes sense. Both Villa and Spurs have struggled with their attackers this season who have not had the best output when it comes to scoring goals. Newcastle, on the other hand, have the options of Nick Woltemade and Yoane Wissa, both signed in big money moves in the summer. Aston Villa, meanwhile, are eyeing attacking reinforcements as they look to bolster Unai Emery's squad for the second half of the campaign."
Brentford lost Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa in the summer and now face fresh interest in Igor Thiago, who has scored eight league goals in 11 appearances, second only to Erling Haaland. Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur have made initial enquiries ahead of the January transfer window, while scouts across Europe monitor his form. Brentford currently seem unwilling to part with their top scorer mid-season. Aston Villa and Tottenham's interest reflects their struggles to find consistent goal output, and Aston Villa are seeking reinforcements to bolster Unai Emery's squad for the second half of the campaign.
