"Igor Thiago has become one of the standout names of the winter transfer window. His strong performances for Brentford have put him firmly on the radar of Premier League giants. Sources close to the player's situation have informed CaughtOffside that Tottenham, Newcastle and Aston Villa are all showing serious interest, while clubs from Serie A and La Liga are also keeping an eye on the Brazilian striker. Thiago has 12 goals in 16 matches this season."
"Brentford's stance is clear, and the club has set a price as high as 70 million, with some reports even mentioning 70 million. That figure makes a January move difficult, especially given Thiago's contract until 2029. Brentford are reluctant to lose such a key player midway through the season. Aston Villa boss Unai Emery sees Thiago as a long-term alternative to Ollie Watkins and could push for a bid in the 5057 million range."
"He will look to compete at a high-level and join a big club. The move to Tottenham would probably be more attractive for him compared to the other two clubs. Tottenham have an exciting project, and they recently won the UEFA Europa League. A quality striker could make a huge difference for them in the final third, and the move would be ideal for all parties. It will be interesting to see if they are willing to pay the asking price in the summer."
Igor Thiago has scored 12 goals in 16 matches and attracted interest from Tottenham, Newcastle and Aston Villa, with attention also from Serie A and La Liga clubs. Brentford values Thiago at around 70 million and holds a contract until 2029, making a January exit unlikely. Aston Villa could bid in the 50–57 million range as a long-term alternative to Ollie Watkins. Tottenham explored a loan but Brentford rejected that option. Newcastle view Thiago as an ideal attacking reinforcement. Strong offers are expected in the summer. Thiago's priority is regular playing time to secure a Brazil World Cup place.
