Brentford striker Yoane Wissa has been linked with a move away from the club during the summer transfer window.
According to a report from talkSPORT, clubs like Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are interested in the 28-year-old striker. Brentford were unwilling to sell the player earlier this summer, but it seems that they are stance has now changed.
Wissa pressure has paid off
The report claims that the player is determined to force a transfer this summer, and he has refused to train with the club and participate in their preseason preparations.
His antics have forced Brentford to reconsider their stance. The development will come as a huge boost for clubs like Tottenham and Newcastle. It will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer to finalise the deal.
Tottenham need more depth and quality in the attacking unit, especially with players like Son Heung-min and Richarlison expected to leave the club in the summer. The Brentford striker scored 20 goals in all competitions last season, and he has the quality to play for a big club. He could help him improve and share the goal-scoring burden with Dominic Solanke.
Yoane Wissa would relish Spurs move
The 28-year-old is at the peak of his career, and this could be his final opportunity to join a big club. Spurs could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies and test his qualities in the UEFA Champions League.
Tottenham managed to win the UEFA Europa League last season, and they will be an attractive destination for players. It remains to be seen whether they can secure an agreement with Brentford in the coming weeks. If they manage to add a reliable striker to their ranks, it would be a huge boost for them heading into the new season.
Meanwhile, the striker played his best football under Thomas Frank last season and reuniting with his former manager at Tottenham could be ideal for him as well.
