Igor Thiago - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Still without goal contribution Thiago had two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Sunderland.

Impact Thiago produced Brentford's first significant test of Roefs with one of his two attempts finding the target, but he was unable to convert and remains without a goal contribution through three Premier League appearances. That's a quiet opening compared with his 22-goal Premier League campaign last season. Continuing to generate shots is encouraging, but Brentford will be looking for their center-forward to rediscover the finishing efficiency that made him such a productive scorer.

Five shots against Leeds United Thiago registered five shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Leeds United.

Impact Thiago was Brentford's most persistent attacking threat at Elland Road, registering five shots including two on goal across 90 minutes, opening the match with an early back-post volley straight at James Trafford before heading Dango Ouattara's cross against Trafford's palms in the 79th minute with the goal at his mercy. He also delivered two crosses and nearly restored Brentford's lead instantly after Dominic Calvert-Lewin's equalizer but could only turn Trafford's parried save into the side netting at full stretch. Thiago now has two shots on goal from two Premier League appearances this season without yet opening his account for the campaign.

Misses penalty in opener Thiago registered two shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 win versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Thiago had a golden opportunity to score in Saturday's season opener, but his penalty attempt in the 55th minute hit the left post and ricocheted out of harms way. It's an unfortunate way to start the season for Thiago despite the big win, as that moment was really the only negative in Brentford's otherwise dominant win. On the bright side, the Brentford attack looked potent and completely in sync versus Spurs, so Thiago should have plenty of opportunities to finish off attacks this season.

Impact Thiago finished last season with 22 goals and one assist, the Premier League's second highest scorer behind Erling Haaland, before a quiet World Cup with Brazil that saw him start the opener against Morocco but go unused the rest of the tournament. His immediate impact upon returning to the squad is an encouraging sign, and he looks set to remain Brentford's undisputed starter up front and primary penalty taker heading into the new 2026/27 Premier League season.

Joins Brentford camp Thiago has returned to Brentford's training camp following his World Cup campaign with Brazil, the club posted.

Impact Thiago heads to Brentford's preseason after a World Cup with Brazil in which he started the opening match against Morocco before going unused for the remainder of the tournament, a quiet finish to what had otherwise been a landmark breakout year. He now turns his focus back to the club level, where he delivered 22 goals and one assist last season to finish as the Premier League's second top scorer behind Erling Haaland. Thiago will hope to carry that form into the new campaign as Brentford's undisputed starter up front and the club's penalty taker.
