At the beginning of July, Kevin Schade took the lead in Brentford’s record signings after a loan fee of 25 million euros. The former Freiburger stayed there for a few days before Nathan Collins (Wolves) replaced him with almost 27 million euros. Now the “Bees” are on the verge of beating their own record for the third time this summer. It’s about the former Stuttgart Nicolás González.
The winger has already earned more than 35 million euros in transfer proceeds from his two moves from Argentina to VfB and from Stuttgart to Italy. For the west London club to push this figure further, Fiorentina must now play their part. González has only been active there for two years after leaving Germany and is still committed until 2026.

Brentford reportedly tried an offer of just over €30m, which would have broken Brentford’s record. But Fiorentina refused. According to several reports from England, including “The Telegraph” and “The Athletic”, the club from the Thames have now returned with an improved offer: around 41 million euros are said to be on the table. That would also be a remarkable amount in the history of the Italians. The Viola only generated more from a player sale three times. González’ sale would be more lucrative than Federico Bernardeschi or Gabriel Batistuta.
