Brentford's Yoane Wissa has expressed his desire to leave the club, claiming that Brentford are 'unduly standing in my way'. The 28-year-old forward posted a statement on his social media on Sunday morning, outlining his intention to exit the club. Wissa's statement comes after Brentford rejected a £35m bid from Newcastle United, with the club also turning down a £25m proposal from the Tyneside club in July. Head coach Keith Andrews has stressed that the club wants to hold on to Wissa, but the forward has not been included in any of Brentford's first three 2025-26 Premier League matchday squads. Wissa has registered 49 goals and 13 assists in 149 appearances for Brentford since joining from French side Lorient in 2021. The forward held face-to-face talks with the club's hierarchy after returning from their Portugal training camp. Wissa's Instagram statement revealed that he had been given assurances by the club that they would not stand in his way if a reasonable offer was received. However, the club has now significantly changed its position, going against what was communicated to Wissa and his representatives. Brentford declined to comment on Wissa's statement when approached by The Athletic. The situation has left Wissa feeling frustrated, with the forward believing that the club is preventing him from moving on. Wissa's future at Brentford remains uncertain, with the transfer window set to close soon. The club's decision to reject Newcastle's bid has sparked speculation about Wissa's future, with the forward's statement only adding to the uncertainty. As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Wissa is determined to leave Brentford and pursue a new challenge.
