Yoane Wissa could be set for a stunning return to action for Brentford if their latest training footage is anything to go by. It comes after Newcastle saw an improved offer for the forward

Newcastle are under pressure to sign a new striker this summer. Callum Wilson was released following the expiration of his contract, but Eddie Howe’s side were forced to start the season without a recognised centre forward after Isak began his own protest over his desired move to Liverpool.

Wissa has refused to train with Brentford to help force through his move to St James’ Park. Earlier this week, he deleted all traces of Brentford’s presence from his social media, as he looks to make it clear that he has no interest in playing for the club again.

Wayne Rooney has blasted the behaviour of Yoane Wissa as he tries to force a move from Brentford to Newcastle United this summer.

Signing Wissa or Strand Larsen would provide a boost before the end of the window, but Newcastle are scouring Europe for contingency plans
