Agent: 'Thomas Strakosha hoping to leave Brentford in January'

The agent of Thomas Strakosha has admitted that the goalkeeper is currently unhappy with his situation at Brentford.

When the Bees won the race for the Albania international in the summer, it was perceived to be a significant coup for the Premier League outfit ahead of their second season in the division.

However, despite making 208 appearances for Lazio over the past six campaigns, Strakosha is yet to make an impact in West London.

The 27-year-old has been provided with just one outing against Colchester United in the EFL Cup second round back in August.

Since then, Strakosha has played second fiddle to David Raya, despite Brentford possessing the joint-sixth worst defensive record in the division.

When moving to Brentford, Strakosha opted to pen a five-year contract, leaving the top-flight outfit in a strong position with regards to his future.

Nevertheless, agent Federico Pastorello has revealed that he hopes to find a solution for his client in January, hinting that opportunities may arise elsewhere due to the injury sustained by Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.

Speaking to Tuttomercatoweb, Pastorello said: "Maybe they were thinking of selling their goalkeeper, I don't know. But clearly it's a situation that we've only been in for a short time and it's a bit awkward today because for a goalkeeper who has over 200 games in Serie A with Lazio to find himself not playing at Brentford is not easy, bearing in mind that we're talking about an important Premier League club.

"It's an anomaly. He's asked me to find a solution, let's see, he's one of those players who could be part of the goalkeeping market that will arise from Neuer's injury.

"We have our ears to the ground to listen to the opportunities that will come, I wouldn't be surprised if something turns up in January also because Brentford themselves have understood the boy's embarrassment in this situation."

Although Brentford have England Under-20 international Matthew Cox as third choice, the 19-year-old is yet to make an appearance in senior football.

That likely leaves Brentford requiring a replacement if they are to give the green light to an exit for Strakosha at the midway point of the campaign.

However, it is a solution which may become a realistic possibility given Strakosha's wages at Brentford, while there is also a scenario where Brentford could make a quick profit on the player having signed him on a free transfer. body check tags ::
