brentford agreement
The outlet reports that although no contract has been signed yet, an agreement in principle has been reached. Brentford have beaten other Premier League teams and Serie A side Kou to sign him.
The 19-year-old was reportedly impressed with Brentford’s project from the start. He is aware of his history of being a good stepping stone for young talent. The fact that Keith Andrews’ side are also in contention for Europe is another bonus.
According to Sky, the total deal including bonuses will be worth just over €20m. This would make Schuster the most expensive sale for an Austrian player in the history of the league.
He would surpass the previous record set by Nicolas Seewald when he moved to RB Leipzig. He would be joint tenth with Seewald and Erling Haaland in terms of record departures for RB Salzberg. Dominik Szoboszlai is headlined by a €36 million move to RB Leipzig in 2021.
Where does Schuster fit in at Brentford?
Whether the centre-back is seen as an immediate reinforcement to Brentford’s first team, or as a player for the future, remains to be seen.
The Bees already have strong options in central defence, with Sepp van den Bergh, Nathan Collins, Kristoffer Ajer and Ethan Pinnock to choose from.
But they are not immune to blooding youth quickly, and clearly have confidence in Jannik Schuster if they are willing to pay €20m to get him this summer.
Now the deal is done and in the final stages, only final confirmation is left. After that, the youngster can start working on convincing Brentford that it was money well spent.
