Want-away Brentford striker Yoane Wissa slams club for 'unduly standing in my way'

On August 31, 2025, Brentford forward Yoane Wissa publicly expressed his desire to leave the club immediately, before the deadline of the summer transfer period at 7pm UK time on Monday.
Wissa said Brentford promised he could leave this summer for a new challenge, but the club has significantly changed its position and rejected offers, including a latest £40 million bid.
He emphasized that he has been transparent, held open discussions with senior management including key directors and the head coach, and has always acted professionally on and off the pitch.
Wissa netted 19 goals in the Premier League during the previous season, contributing to Brentford’s strong 10th-place finish, and he expressed gratitude to the fans while hoping for a fair outcome that would enable his transfer.
The dispute suggests ongoing tension as Brentford currently stands firm against his sale, which Wissa says will tarnish four years of contribution if he is forced to stay.
