Yoane Wissa keen on Brentford exit
Brentford attacker Yoane Wissa has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks, with clubs like Newcastle United and Tottenham keen on signing him.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Yoane Wissa wants to leave Brentford this summer, which will be a major boost for Newcastle and Tottenham. It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done. The player is valued at £50million, and the two clubs will probably hope to sign him for a more reasonable sum.
There is no doubt he has been a reliable performer in the Premier League. He scored 20 goals in all competitions last season and could prove to be an excellent addition for either club.
Newcastle and Tottenham need another striker
Newcastle need more depth in their attacking unit, specifically someone who can support Alexander Isak in the attack. On the other hand, Tottenham need more goals in the side. Club record signing Dominic Solanke has not been able to deliver consistently and needs more support in the attack. Signing another striker would be ideal.
The 28-year-old is experienced with proven pedigree in the Premier League. He could make an instant impact at Tottenham if he joins the club. Both Newcastle and Tottenham will be able to offer him Champions League football, and it will be interesting to see where the player ends up. He wants to join a competitive club where he can play at the highest level and fight for trophies. Wissa is at the peak of his career, and this is the right time for him to move on and take up a new challenge. Newcastle and Tottenham have exciting projects and will be attractive destinations.
Meanwhile, Tottenham will certainly hope the presence of Thomas Frank helps them secure the deal. The Danish manager has played a key role in Wissa’s development, and the player could be keen on a reunion with his former manager. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
