Brentford is close to signing Burnley attacker Jaidon Anthony on a four-year deal with a fifth-year option after an early July 2026 medical, as Premier League clubs move quickly in the summer window.
Brentford FC is close to signing attacker Jaidon Anthony from Burnley for an initial £15 million, with performance-related add-ons that could raise the fee to £17 million. Anthony, 26, is expected to sign a four-year contract with an option for a fifth year, subject to a medical scheduled for early July 2026. He arrives after two seasons at Burnley, where he recorded 17 goals and 11 assists in 81 appearances, including eight goals and two assists in the most recent campaign during the club’s promotion push. Talks began on June 26, 2026, and an agreement in principle was reached in roughly a week. A newer roundup on the wider transfer window described the move as completed at £17 million, while also noting heavy early activity across the Premier League, but the more detailed reporting framed Brentford’s deal as nearing completion rather than finalized.
