That won’t happen’: Manager says £8.5m striker will definitely not be joining Arsenal

The Brentford forward has been linked to moves to both Arsenal and Forest as they want to increase their attacking options. After losing Bukayo Saka and Ethan Nwaneri to injuries this month, Mikel Arteta’s team is obviously in need of a new forward. Nuno Espirito Santo’s team, meanwhile, will be eager to secure a top-four position by adding an attacker to rival Chris Wood and their other forward choices.

What has been said regarding Yoane Wissa’s interest in Nottingham Forest and Arsenal?

Yoane Wissa was reportedly named as a transfer target by Nottingham Forest and Arsenal this month. Both teams are reportedly interested in the 28-year-old because of his versatility, as the Congolese forward can play both left-wing and up top. Even though Wissa only has 18 months left on his contract, Brentford has no plans to sell him this month, according to a report from TBR Football last week. Despite his circumstances, the Bees do not now wish to cash in on him; however, they may need to change their mind in the summer to prevent losing him for nothing. In 2021, Wissa was signed for a mere £8.5 million.

Nottingham Forest and Arsenal were warned by Thomas Frank about Yoane Wissa.

Thomas Frank has informed Nottingham Forest and Arsenal that they will not be making a move for Wissa this month. Although he says a deal won’t happen, the Brentford manager wished both teams success in their attempts to sign him this month. “I would say good luck [to Forest]!” Frank told the media following their loss to Liverpool. That [Wissa deal] won’t occur.Wissa has been outstanding this season, scoring 11 goals in 19 Premier League games, even though the West London team is only ranked 11th in the league.
