Tottenham Hotspur could be preparing a Brentford double swoop this summer, with Yoane Wissa now on the club’s radar alongside his attacking partner Bryan Mbeumo.
Thomas Frank’s Arrival Sparks Brentford Link
New Spurs head coach Thomas Frank, who replaced Ange Postecoglou earlier this month, has already begun to shape his North London blueprint. Alongside bringing trusted lieutenants such as coach Justin Cochrane from the Gtech Community Stadium, the Dane is reportedly weighing up whether to raid his former club for on-pitch reinforcements.
While Bryan Mbeumo — also being tracked by Manchester United — has already made headlines, a fresh name has entered the discussion: Yoane Wissa.
Wissa ‘Intrigued’ by Move to Spurs
According to The Guardian, Tottenham have held internal discussions over a move for the 28-year-old Cameroon international. Sources suggest Wissa is “intrigued” by the possibility of following his former boss to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
However, Spurs aren’t alone in their interest. Nottingham Forest are also reportedly circling, having missed out on Wissa in January. Despite his contract expiring in 2026 — factoring in Brentford’s 12-month extension option — the West London outfit are expected to demand at least £40 million.
Why Wissa? His Stats Tell the Story
Wissa’s 2024-25 Premier League season was nothing short of outstanding. Netting 19 goals, he finished as the league’s sixth top scorer, outgunned only by names like Salah, Isak, Haaland, Chris Wood, and Mbeumo.
Together with Mbeumo, the duo accounted for a staggering 59% of Brentford’s total league goals (39 between them), making Wissa a logical target for any side seeking goal-scoring pedigree with Premier League experience.
What’s Next for Spurs?
While talks remain internal, Tottenham’s transfer strategy under Frank appears to be gaining momentum. Could a double Brentford deal be on the horizon? With Mbeumo and Wissa both proven at this level and familiar with Frank’s philosophy, such moves would offer immediate attacking chemistry — something Spurs fans will be eager to see revitalized in the upcoming campaign.
Keep your eyes on North London — this summer window is just heating up.
