Newcastle -Baas Eddie Howe is eager to sign a new attacker to supplement Alexander Isak next season and the club will go all the way for Brentford's Yoane Wissa after missing Hugo Ekitike
Newcastle has performed their bid to sign Brentford Striker Yoane Wissa after reporting that the Magpies have rejected an £ 25 million bid for the player. The 28-year-old has left the training camp of the bees in Portugal after he told the club that he should sort out his future.
Tottenham and Nottingham Forest both love the Dr. Congo International, but Newcastle is determined to have their husband miss a series of transfer goals this summer.
Wissa will have conversations with Brentford director of Football Phil Giles, but after the departure from Thomas Frank to Spurs, he now seems to be looking for a move of the Gtech Community Stadium.
The magpies will fly to Singapore for the first stage of their Asian tour that have only protected one game – Anthony Elanga so far – admits Eddie Howe that it has openly been a frustrating window for him.
Despite the determination of the tone to hold on to Alexander Isak, in the midst of strong interest from Liverpool, the club is planning to strengthen their team for the big kick -off.
And although the age of Wissa is not ideal for a club that wants to lower the age profile, they are ready to meet the valuation of Brentford of around £ 35 million.
A report from Sky Sports has claimed that Newcastle believes that a deal will be concluded after their first offer has been rejected – with the player only one year left to his contract in the Gtech Community Stadium. It is clear that he wants to play in the Champions League and the bees told that he is “open” for a move to St James' park.
Brentford would be extremely reluctant to lose two important attackers, because he has already allowed Bryan Mbeumo to be at Manchester United this week to join Manchester United.
The bees dug their heels in more than Mbeumo, which they signed for only £ 5 million in 2019, because they demanded a considerable fee after his excellent displays last season, so he scored 20 goals in the Premier League.
After he had already broken up Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £ 62.5 million, Brentford demanded a higher fee that would justify Mbeumo's superior season about the Brazilian.
Losing both Mbeumo and Wissa would be a huge blow to the new boss Keith Andrews, who has a huge task for him to keep the team away from relegation.
Brentford will be confronted with QPR and Borussia Monchengladbach in the preseason for their Premier League opener Weg in Nottingham Forest on August 17.
