Brentford is one of three Premier League clubs, alongside Fulham and Sunderland, that have recently shown concrete interest in 20-year-old central midfielder Christ Inao Oulaï. All three clubs have made inquiries with the player's entourage to assess the feasibility of a transfer. The English teams are said to appreciate Oulaï's physical qualities, intensity, and forward-moving ability, which are considered suitable for the league's demands. His recent performances for the Ivory Coast have also helped to increase his public recognition. Oulaï is under contract with Trabzonspor until June 2030 and is valued at 23 million euros by Transfermarkt, but the Turkish club does not intend to sell the player without difficulty, and the competition could increase the price. In the 2025/2026 Süper Lig season, Oulaï made 25 appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 4 assists, and he has 10 caps for the Ivory Coast. In January 2026, Trabzonspor reportedly rejected a €40 million offer from Chelsea. The Turkish club's asking price was consistently reported as being between €45 million and €50 million throughout early 2026.
