Cup spot secured? Brazilian joins Europe’s top 4 scorers | OneFootball

Igor Thiago scored another goal for Brentford this Saturday (2) and strengthened his case for a spot at the World Cup.

The striker has now reached 22 GOALS this season, closing in on Haaland (Manchester City) and Mbappé (Real Madrid), who both have 24 goals.

Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) leads the scoring charts comfortably with 33 goals.

With these numbers, Igor Thiago is increasingly establishing himself as a strong candidate for a World Cup call-up.

The 24-year-old player has been called up only once, in March, for the friendlies against France and Croatia.

Igor Thiago started both matches on the bench, coming on in the final minutes. He scored a goal in the 3-1 win over Croatia.
