Hit and Wiss
Brentford boss Keith Andrews has given an update on the future of Yoane Wissa.
The striker is allegedly refusing to play for the club after the Bees rejected an offer from Newcastle, who then pulled out of signing him.
Andrews said: “The situation is that he is training at the training ground.
“It’s probably public knowledge at this stage that he left our training camp in Lisbon. That was probably the right decision for all parties. We had to support him in what is a difficult time for him.
“I think we have to remember that it’s not just about being a footballer, it’s the person and the human being first.
“Again, it’s public knowledge that there is some interest in Wiss. We have to respect that and respect him.
“I have got a really good relationship with Yoane from last season and that’s still the case now, but obviously it’s not ideal.
“We have constant communication with Yoane around the situation. I think he’s OK to a point.
“When you look at the business we’ve done this season, the outgoings have been done early.
“This is probably not wanted or desired, certainly from my point of view. It’s not an ideal scenario but it’s what the transfer window is.”
