According to TEAMtalk, leading European clubs have been keeping a close eye on the forward's impressive performances.
Notable suitors: Intermediaries from Manchester United, Chelsea, and Tottenham have reached out to assess the feasibility of a potential transfer. Furthermore, scouting reports on Tiago were prepared by Bayern Munich.
Brentford's decision: Head coach Keith Andrews and the club hierarchy view Tiago as a pivotal part of their long-term project. Earlier this year, a new long-term contract was signed with the player.
Player's mindset: The forward himself is fully content with his development at the club, has no intentions of forcing a move, and is keen to establish his success further in London.
With Brentford and the player’s camp in complete agreement, the Bees are confident they can retain the forward until the transfer window closes.
