Brentford's new signing Igor Thiago has suffered a meniscus injury and will have further scans next week to determine the extent of the issue.

The striker signed from Club Bruges in July - for a club-record fee of £30m - and made his debut for the Bees against AFC Wimbledon last week.

It was during that 5-2 victory that the 23-year-old sustained the injury.

The club have said: "More information will be released in due course."

How worried are you Brentford fans? The striker was reportedly brought in as Ivan Toney's replacement but could face a period of time out, so what now?
