Brentford faces significant disruption as Congolese forward Yuan Wissa refuses to attend training sessions. The 28-year-old striker has withdrawn from team activities after Newcastle United submitted transfer proposals for his services. Newcastle officials presented formal bids to acquire Wissa during the current transfer period. Brentford management rejected all approaches and maintains that the player remains unavailable for purchase. Transfer specialist Ben Jacobs reports Newcastle increased their proposal to £30 million without success.
Newcastle pursues Wissa as part of broader attacking reinforcements ahead of the new campaign. The Magpies anticipate potential departures from their current forward line. Alexander Isak did not travel with teammates to Singapore for preseason preparations. His absence suggests the Swedish striker may seek opportunities elsewhere this summer. Newcastle requires additional striking options should Isak complete his expected departure from St James Park.
