Bodes well if we do hire him. They’ve made a lot of smart moves IMO since rejoining the PL despite being ridiculed initially with their turnover.

Erikse Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Just had a look at Brentfords squad, and christ.. You can see why they have put such a big price tag on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even where players haven't worked out he's done a great job of moving them on and recouping decent fees. I do wonder how much influence he'll be allowed to have over target selection if he comes here though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Listening to Keith Andrews presser he clearly expects Wissa will be a goner. No “we hope he stays” and very much we’re just waiting for all the pieces to fall into place and see where we are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Weird though. If I'm Ouatarra then I think I'd much rather be at Bournemouth than this current version of Brentford. Unless he really is frustrated by lack of playing time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Magpie Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 (edited) Wissa probably goes right up to deadline day, once Brentford and Bournemouth get there replacements in. Not ideal but probs deffo gets done, just means we don't have an out and out striker for probably first 3 games.

It also means we'll just have to pay whatever it takes to get it done, because by then all other options will have gone as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brentford is a good move for his career, he will likely get an initial pay increase and the chance to put himself in the shop window by being a regular starter for a more lucrative move further down the line. He apparently earns £35k per week at Bournemouth so you would expect that to jump to at least £50k per week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started 22 games for them last season. If Brentford have told him he'll be their leading forward I can see the appeal when you consider they're geared towards selling as a football club.

STM Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 That actually reads like he doesn't expect Outtara to stay. I just cant see Wissa staying, regardless of whether Brentford get a striker but I dont blame them for doing things in their time and not being bullied by the player.

They might be banking on reintegrating Wissa, a bit like us with Isak. Fair play to them as they have to protect their interests. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Cardigan Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Wissa is out of the Brentford squad for the weekend because of an “unsettling summer”, it’s an eerie parallel with another well known situation, Harry Kane I think it was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
