Yoane Wissa expressed strong desire to transfer to Newcastle during recent talks with Brentford director Phil Giles. After returning from pre-season training, Wissa conveyed intent to move to St James' Park but became frustrated as Brentford did not sanction the transfer despite Newcastle's interest. Sources indicate that Wissa feels Brentford is breaching a prior agreement regarding his potential transfer. Ongoing discussions between Brentford and Newcastle's staff continue, yet a finalized deal remains elusive as of now.
Yoane Wissa has held crunch talks with Brentford director of football Phil Giles, during which he threatened not to play for them again if he is not allowed to move to Newcastle.
Wissa flew back from the club's pre-season training camp in Portugal earlier this week for talks with Giles, as he made clear his intention to move to St James' Park.
Those close to the situation claim Wissa believes Brentford are reneging on an agreement to let him leave the club should a sufficient offer be submitted.
It is understood Giles has held further talks with Newcastle's acting sporting director Andy Howe over the past 24 hours - but a deal is still to be reached.
