Igor Thiago is of interest to big clubs, led by Bayern Munich. It is likely that he will leave Brentford after this season. Several goals before and during the World Cup will result in Igor Thiago's price tag approaching 100 million euros.

Team Talk reports that both Manchester City and Bayern Munich have carried out extensive background work on Igor Thiago. The report also states that Bayern Munich view him as a possible long-term successor to Harry Kane.

The Spanish publication Fichajes reports that Bayern Munich have been working on a potential deal for Igor Thiago for several weeks. The publication also claims that Bayern were making progress toward an agreement for Thiago before facing competition from both Chelsea and Manchester City.

Bayern Munich have added Brentford's 24-year-old Brazilian striker Igor Thiago to their list as they consider potential long-term successors for Harry Kane. Sources have told TEAMtalk that Bayern are among several elite clubs, including Manchester City and Chelsea, who have been impressed by the Brazilian's development and are monitoring his progress. This interest comes despite Thiago having recently signed a new long-term contract with Brentford, which runs until the summer of 2031 and includes an option for a further year. A well-placed source also informed TEAMtalk that the player is aware of the attention but is not currently seeking a transfer and is happy at his club. In the current 2025/2026 Premier League season, Thiago has scored 17 goals and provided 1 assist in 26 appearances. His current Transfermarkt market value is €35.00m. According to reports in early 2026, Brentford's asking price was at least €80 million. The club paid €33 million to sign him from Club Brugge in July 2024.
