Keith Andrews has dealt a blow to Newcastle United’s ambitions of signing Yoane Wissa this summer, according to the latest transfer news regarding Newcastle United.
Despite the fact that Newcastle United is showing interest in the striker, Keith Andrews has stated once again that he is determined to have Yoane Wissa on his roster this summer. Earlier this week, the Magpies made a proposal of forty million pounds for Wissa, which the Bees promptly turned down. Wissa was the subject of the Magpies’ offer.
St. James’ Park has made a number of attempts to purchase the 28-year-old player’s signature, and this was the most recent of those attempts. Wissa has been touted as a potential replacement for Callum Wilson for the entirety of the transfer window; nevertheless, Brentford has maintained their stance that he is not available for purchase.
The precise amount that Brentford is willing to pay for Wissa is unknown; however, there have been stories that suggest they may want for as much as sixty million pounds. This cost for a player who is 28 years old and who, as things stand, has only one year left on his current contract at the Gtech Community Stadium is likely to force the Magpies to withdraw from negotiations.
Wolves’ Jorgen Strand Larsen has surfaced as a possible replacement for Wissa, despite the fact that the Molineux club, much like Brentford, is hesitant to part with their talisman. Due to the fact that Wissa’s future with the club is uncertain, Andrews did not include him in his matchday squad for the match that took place at the City Ground last weekend.
Nottingham Forest would emerge victorious with a score of 3-1 against the Bees in the absence of Wissa. Following his replacement of Thomas Frank earlier in the summer, Andrews led Brentford in their first competitive encounter. This match was Andrews’ debut game in charge of Brentford.

The future of Yoane Wissa at Brentford, according to Keith Andrews
This weekend, Brentford will play host to Aston Villa at the Gtech Community Stadium, where they will be playing their home game. Prior to the match against the Villains, Andrews was questioned about whether or not Wissa would be available for selection against Unai Emery’s team. This inquiry came up as a result of the publication of photographs on social media showing Wissa back in training with the group.
After that, the former Republic of Ireland international was questioned about his decision on whether or not Wissa would finish the transfer window as a player for Brentford. On Monday, September 1, at seven o’clock in the evening, the summer transfer window will close, which means that the Magpies have a little more than a week to come to an agreement over the striker’s transfer fee: “He is currently a member of the Brentford team,” said the head coach of the Brentford team.
For as long as I can remember, my attitude toward Yoane has been that I do not want him to decide to go. Despite appearances, that has not changed in any way, shape, or form. I keep coming back to the idea that I should be understanding of his predicament, but I don’t want to lose a player that is of that caliber.
“Though that hasn’t really altered over the entirety of the transfer window, we are keeping our fingers crossed that he will be here within the next ten to twelve days, regardless of what it is. If I were the head coach, I would like to see that happen.
In light of the fact that Alexander Isak is still unable to be taken into consideration for selection, Newcastle United will once again start Anthony Gordon in the front line position on Monday night. Since the last day of the previous season, Isak has not kicked a ball for the Magpies, and he continues to train far away from his teammates.
