Yoane Wissa wants to leave Brentford immediately. |
In a statement released publicly, Wissa said he felt the need to speak out after a long period of silence amid speculation surrounding his future at Brentford. He made clear his desire to leave, and expressed frustration that the club's board were holding him back despite receiving a series of reasonable offers over the summer.
The Congolese player shared that since joining Brentford in 2021, he has always given 100% and is proud of what he has built with the team. With 149 matches and 49 goals, Wissa affirms that he has always been professional both on and off the field and has never taken the honor of wearing the Brentford shirt for granted.
He revealed that he had open discussions with the club's senior leadership and new head coach at the start of the summer, in which he expressed his desire to seek a new challenge. According to Wissa, during those meetings, Brentford confirmed - both verbally and in writing - that they would not stand in the way of a suitable offer.
Based on that, Wissa actively sought a new destination and remained transparent with the club throughout the negotiation process. He said he had received an official offer from another Premier League team, namely Newcastle, and had expressed his desire to move. However, Wissa said Brentford changed their stance at the last minute, going against what they had committed to, leaving him in a difficult and disappointing situation.

Wissa insists he has not acted unprofessionally and has no intention of leaving Brentford under duress. He has maintained a positive attitude and demonstrated an attitude that is consistent with his values as a player and a person.
The striker insists he remains hopeful a fair deal can be reached before the transfer window closes, and says staying at Brentford in the current circumstances could overshadow a fine four years at the club.
Finally, Wissa sent his sincere thanks to Brentford fans for their support throughout the journey, and called on the club's leadership to respect the promise to allow him to leave in the final hours of this summer's transfer window.
