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 United and Tottenham Hotspur. It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done. The French-born striker 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. Wissa contributed to 25 goals in all competitions last season, and he could prove to be an excellent addition for either club. Meanwhile, Newcastle United have already failed with a bid to sign him, and they will likely return with an improved bid.
Newcastle United and Tottenham need another striker
Newcastle United need more depth in their attacking unit, specifically someone who can support Alexander Isak in the final third. On the other hand, Tottenham need more goals for their attackers. Club record signing Dominic Solanke has not been able to deliver consistently, and the Englishman needs more support in the attack. Signing another striker would be ideal.
Yoane Wissa is experienced with proven pedigree in the Premier League. He could make an instant impact at Tottenham if he joins the North London club. Both Newcastle United and Tottenham will be able to offer him UEFA Champions League football, and it will be interesting to see where the player ends up.
The DR Congo international wants to join a competitive club where he can play at the highest level and fight for trophies, and recent reports have claimed that he has agreed personal terms with Newcastle United. 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 tactician 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.
