Stuart Pearce has ‘no doubt’ that the likes of ARSENAL have been looking at a deal to sign Yoane Wissa from Brentford this summer, as the Gunners seek to add to their attack in the coming days.

Wissa, who mainly operates as a centre-forward but can also play as a left winger, scored 20 goals for Brentford last season across all competitions and has been linked with a move away from the club all summer transfer window.

It’s reported that Brentford want at least £50m to even consider selling Wissa before the start of the 2025-26 campaign. Wissa has played a total of 137 Premier League games for Brentford to date, registering 45 goals and 13 assists

The 28-year-old DR Congo star was linked to Tottenham last month, with Spurs now under the management of former Bees boss Thomas Frank, But Pearce feels Wissa would be a ‘major asset’ for the likes of United and Arsenal if they were to recruit him in the current summer transfer window

‘There’s no doubt Manchester United and Arsenal would have been looking at Yoane Wissa,’ Pearce told BoyleSports, who offer the latest Premier League odds.

‘When you look at the season he had last year, he was magnificent. The goals he’s delivered while playing with width and playing down the middle as well.

‘That’s a major asset for any football club and the fact that Nottingham Forest have moved the odd player on recently, along with other sides in the division, you would think that by the time the season starts, he might well have moved on [from Brentford].’

IcFootballnews Says…

ARSENAL have done alot of transfer business already this summer, signed the players that they really wanted, improved a number of positions, if Mikel Arteta wanted to sign Wissa, we are sure that a move would have been made by now.
