Brentford's transfer target Matteo Cancellieri is now available for transfer after Lazio placed him on the market. The Italian winger was a target for the Bees in January, with a €15 million offer made.

What happened?

Lazio's decision to place Cancellieri on the transfer list comes after the club's new manager Gennaro Guttuso decided not to negotiate a new contract with the player. Cancellieri's current deal expires in June 2027.

Why it matters for Brentford

The Bees are still in the market for a new winger, and Cancellieri's availability could be an opportunity for them to strengthen their squad. Brentford currently sits 9th in the Premier League, with 53 points from 38 games, and a recent form of DDLWL. Their last result was a 1-1 draw against Liverpool on May 24, 2026.

What comes next?

Brentford will face competition from other European clubs, including Olympiacos, Torino, and Fiorentina, who are also interested in signing Cancellieri. The Bees will need to act quickly to secure the player's signature. | Club | Interest | | --- | --- | | Olympiacos | High | | Torino | Medium | | Fiorentina | Medium | Brentford's manager will need to make a decision on whether to pursue Cancellieri's signature, considering the club's current league standing and recent form.
