West Ham United, Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Tottenham are reportedly interested in signing Igor Thiago from Brentford.
Igor Thiago has 12 goals in 16 matches this season, and he is in fine form. He could prove to be an excellent acquisition for all four clubs. According to an update by Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur, West Ham are looking to add more quality and depth to the attacking unit, and they have identified the forward as a target.
The Hammers need to score more goals if they want to do well this season. They are currently fighting for survival in the Premier League. Niclas Fullkrug and Callum Wilson have not been able to live up to the expectations, and West Ham will need to bring in a reliable finisher.
Igor Thiago would be an excellent acquisition for them. The 24-year-old is well-settled in the Premier League, and he could make an immediate impact. Meanwhile, Aston Villa are looking for an alternative to Ollie Watkins and have their sights firmly set on Igor Thiago.
He has not been at his best this season, and Aston Villa will need to replace him. Thiago could prove to be an excellent acquisition for them. Aston Villa are pushing for UEFA Champions League qualification, and they need that extra bit of quality. The player may be attracted to the idea of joining them as well. They have an exciting project and a quality manager.
Newcastle United have an ambitious project as well. The Magpies are already competing in the UEFA Champions League, and they managed to win a domestic trophy last season. It will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for Thiago.
However, the Tyneside outfit already signed two quality strikers in the summer transfer window. They might not be able to accommodate Thiago in the starting lineup. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Finally, Tottenham are keen on the player. The North Londoners are in desperate need of a reliable goal scorer. Dominic Solanke has not been able to live up to the expectations, and Tottenham need an upgrade. The Brazilian is in tremendous form, and he could make a big difference for them in the final third.
