Sources close to the club claim the 25-year-old forward is increasingly frustrated after finding himself sidelined under the tactical system implemented by head coach **Keith Andrews**. Despite arriving with high expectations and a strong goal-scoring pedigree, Thiago has struggled to secure a consistent starting role in key fixtures.
Insiders suggest Andrewsโ recent tactical adjustments โ favoring a more fluid front line and alternative attacking options โ have limited Thiagoโs opportunities to make a sustained impact. The striker is reportedly furious at being benched for several crucial matches, believing he has done enough in training and limited appearances to warrant a regular spot.
Those close to the Brazilian frontman say he is determined to play a leading role at this stage of his career and does not want another season of rotational football.
Clubs across Europe are now monitoring the situation closely. Early reports indicate that a fee in the region of **ยฃ24 million** could be enough to tempt Brentford into negotiations should the player formally request a transfer.
Bundesliga and Serie A sides are believed to be showing the strongest interest, with scouts reportedly impressed by Thiagoโs physical presence, aerial ability, and sharp finishing inside the box. A move to Italy is said to be particularly appealing, offering a fresh tactical environment and the promise of regular first-team football.
Brentford are understood to be reluctant to lose a striker they view as a long-term asset. However, the club has built a reputation for pragmatic transfer decisions, and they may consider a sale if the offer meets their valuation.
For now, no official statement has been made, but tensions are reportedly simmering behind the scenes. With the summer transfer window approaching, this developing saga could quickly escalate into one of the Premier Leagueโs most talked-about stories.
