Aston Villa, Tottenham, and Newcastle United are monitoring 24-year-old Brentford striker Igor Thiago ahead of a potential transfer. According to Trivela and ESPN Brazil via SportWitness, all three Premier League clubs are interested in the Brazilian. The interested parties are said to be closely watching his progress and have already established contact to understand the requirements for a potential deal. Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is reportedly looking for a player to compete with Ollie Watkins. However, any move could be complicated as Brentford may be reluctant to sell, and the player's contract, which runs until the summer of 2029, gives the club a strong negotiating position. Thiago, who joined Brentford in July 2024, has scored 6 goals in 10 Premier League appearances this season. His current market value is €22.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
