Newcastle United submitted a 35 million offer plus add-ons to Brentford for forward Yoane Wissa, and the player is eager to join St James' Park. Eddie Howe's side have struggled in the summer transfer market, missing targets such as Joao Pedro, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko and Hugo Ekitike. Wissa has been identified as Newcastle's primary attacking target due to his aggressive pressing and ability to link play, attracting interest from several top clubs. Wissa views the move as a career step, drawn by Champions League football and Howe's project. The transfer aims to address uncertainty over Alexander Isak's long-term future.
According to journalist Ben Jacobs, Newcastle United have made their intentions clear in the transfer market by submitting a 35 million offer plus add-ons for Brentford forward Yoane Wissa. The Magpies have identified the Congolese international as a key target to bolster their attack before the window closes, and importantly, the player himself is eager to make the switch to St James' Park. Eddie Howe's team have struggled in the transfer market this summer.
The Magpies have since then identified Wissa as their primary target for the attacking position. His ability to press aggressively and link up with teammates has attracted the attention of several top clubs, but Newcastle are now moving with urgency to secure his services. Jacobs reports that Wissa has already communicated his desire to join Newcastle, seeing the move as a significant step forward in his career.
