Igor Thiago
24-Year-Old
Brentford
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thiago joined Brentford last summer but made just eight appearances due to a serious injury and an infection after surgery. Despite that awful start to life in England, he now steps into the Brentford team with a surprising opportunity for a large role in the attack. Before joining Brentford, he scored 18 goals with Club Brugge and he's expected to shoulder a significant load for the Bees now that he's fit. The thought is that if fit, there will be minutes for him given the player movement that Brentford has had. Yet, with a new manager and minimal time in the Premier League, he's an extremely boom-or-bust forward.
Converts lone chance
Igor Thiago scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Sunderland. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 61st minute.
ANALYSIS

Building fitness but won't start
Thiago is continuing to build his fitness and remains healthy, but is not yet in a position to start, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Igor is over the worst part and getting into training; now it's just about giving him the right load like with any player. Now he just needs to be fit enough to compete. We pushed him a bit hard to be available for the squad because we needed him. He will not start, but he had a good week of training this week."
