Yoane Wissa, a forward for Brentford, is reportedly a target for Tottenham Hotspur during the summer transfer window.
Spurs, who won the Europa League last season by defeating Manchester United, will play in the Champions League even though they finished 17th in the 2024–25 Premier League season.
Spurs have already agreed to sign Mohammed Kudus, a winger for West Ham United, as part of their plan to improve attacking depth and quality under new manager Thomas Frank.
The 28-year-old is open to moving across the capital, and Brentford has been informed of Tottenham’s interest in him, according to a BBC Sport report.
The DR Congo international was previously passed over by Nottingham Forest in January, but if Tottenham can come to an agreement, Wissa may be reunited with his old manager.
According to the report, Brentford is hesitant to let go of Wissa, who finished the season with 20 goals.
It will probably be difficult for any club to remove the Bees’ key players, as they have already lost manager Frank, captain Christian Norgaard to Arsenal, and goalkeeper Mark Flekken to Bayer Leverkusen.
Spurs should be encouraged because Wissa’s current contract expires next summer, and even though they have the option to extend it for another year, they might decide to sell one of their most valuable assets in response to a compelling offer.
If Spurs are successful in acquiring Wissa, an intriguing transfer scenario involving Manchester United may emerge.
Although Brentford has turned down two bids for the Cameroon forward, the Red Devils are eager to sign Bryan Mbeumo.
The London team is unlikely to sell both Wissa and Mbeumo at the same time, even though they are still negotiating a deal.
The 25-year-old winger has stated that he would only move to Manchester United or nowhere, despite Frank’s initial desire to bring him to the north London club.
