Hans Vanaken has a very clear opinion on crazy deal for Igor Thiago – Football News

Brentford are paying a huge sum for the Club Brugge striker. Hans Vanaken also has his own opinion on this topic. “This 37 million euros is, of course, a crazy amount of money. But Igor has many qualities,” he begins in Het Nieuwsblad.

“He runs all the time, applies constant pressure, can follow the ball, is eager to work… Then there was that period where every ball went in. Then the club comes along and sees that and makes an offer.” “It can't be denied. It just depends on what the club is willing to pay, hey.”

“It doesn't scare me anymore,” Vanakin continues. “When it was reported in the newspaper ten years ago that Lokerin had asked for eight million euros for me, we all thought it was ridiculous. Today we are no longer surprised by such sums.”

“Now, to some extent, I am expensive. The clubs that want to buy me will not be able to afford a few million euros. Although at my age I no longer have a resale value, especially if the club asks for around twenty million euros.” “.

Vanaken reveals that he was also able to let go of his past self. “There was interest in the past, I could have played dirty and forced things by calling in sick, but I feel very good to do that.”
