    Brentford have signed Brazilian striker Igor Thiago.
    The Brazilian joins the Bees from Club Brugge having agreed a five-year deal to move to west London from next season.
    “I’m very pleased that we have been proactive as a club; big credit to Matthew Benham, Phil Giles and Lee Dykes for the hard work they have done," said Brentford boss Thomas Frank. "We are ahead of the curve.
    “We have signed a key player for a key position. Thiago is a very exciting striker who fits the role in our team. He is hard working and a very good pressing player. He is also a physical presence, very good in the box and can link the play.
    “He’s progressing well in the Belgian league, so there is big potential and we are looking forward to seeing him in a red and white shirt.”

    They signed Raya’s replacement (Flekken) before selling him, and have now signed Toney’s replacement before he leaves in the summer.
    Brentford (and Brighton) are such a well run club.

    I'm Bulgarian and I watched Igor Thiago a lot during his time at Ludogorets. He has a potential to be a top striker in the future. Wish him all the best there. I'm so excited to see him in the Premier League.

      Went months without scoring for Club Brugge. Has scored 2 goals against top 6 clubs IN BELGIUM so far while playing for the club that creates the highest amout of chances in the league. I'm not talking out of my ass here, would be very surprized if Thiago will be "banging goals for fun" next year. Good luck to you.
      For the last few years Bruges have been able to overhype players and sell way too high; Wesley
      -> Villa 25 mil flop, De Ketelaere -> AC Milan 32 mil flop, ... Seems to me like there was a legal commitment with the Nusa transfer that was solved this way. Thiago is not worth 37 mil, not even 25 mil at the moment. There is only one Club Brugge player close to that amount and ready for a bigger club; Skov Olson,.

      In addition; just checked his market value at Transfermarkt. Currently at 6 million euros, less than one year ago 1 million euros. He is 22, not 17... Scored alot in the last few weeks, but again, in a top team that finally is finding its groove. Nothing justifies a 37 million price tag.

      Charles is a world class player as you can see now in Atalanta. Pioli played him out wrong.

    Another poor first half performance in the derby against Cercle today. Big shoes to fill at Brentford and Thiago is no Toney. Cercles Denkey > Thiago. €37.000.000 is ridiculous.
