Overview

• Wissa published a detailed Instagram statement accusing Brentford of changing its stance and of unduly blocking a move before the transfer deadline.
• Brentford have rejected bids from Newcastle, including an offer reported at £35m plus up to £5m in add-ons, with reports suggesting the club want a higher fee.
• The forward claims senior leaders assured him in writing he could depart if a fair proposal arrived and he is urging them to keep their word.
• He has not featured this season and has been training away from the main squad after leaving the Portugal pre-season camp and removing club references from his social media.
• He has one year remaining on his contract with a club option for an extra season, and personal terms are not thought to be an issue if a fee is agreed.
