Yoane Wissa (Newcastle United)
September 2025

Newcastle United have signed Yoane Wissa from Brentford in a £55m deal as Eddie Howe rebuilds his attack after Alexander Isak’s £130m move to Liverpool. Wissa joins Nick Woltemade in reshaping the frontline. Newcastle endured multiple failed striker bids before landing Wissa. The DR Congo international had pressed to leave Brentford, accusing them of blocking exits earlier in the window. He signs a four-year deal as Howe’s new No.9.
