Newcastle, July 23, 2025 – Newcastle United are growing increasingly confident of landing Brentford forward Yoane Wissa, with the player currently in London for talks regarding his next move.
The Magpies are preparing a formal offer worth over £30 million after seeing an initial £25 million bid rejected within the past 48 hours. Brentford remain firm in their valuation, but Newcastle believe a deal is within reach.
Wissa, 28, enjoyed a sensational campaign last season, netting 19 goals in the Premier League for the Bees. His form has attracted interest from multiple clubs, with Tottenham Hotspur also monitoring the situation. The Congo international is understood to be open to joining either Newcastle or Spurs.
With pre-season preparations ramping up, Newcastle are keen to wrap up negotiations swiftly as they look to bolster their attacking options for the upcoming campaign.
