Brentford's attacking leader Igor Thiago has been recognized as the best player of January in the English Premier League.

One of the league's top scorers this season, Thiago added five more accurate shots to his tally in January.

Interestingly, I. Thiago became the first Brazilian to win this award more than once. It is worth noting that I. Thiago was also recognized as the player of the month last November.

Just on Friday, Brentford announced that a new contract was signed with the 24-year-old player.
