Report: Tottenham 'would love to sign' 25-G/A Newcastle target, Thomas Frank 'confident'

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Yoane Wissa from Brentford during the summer transfer window, and they will face competition from Newcastle United.

Graeme Bailey has now claimed that Tottenham would love to sign the 28-year-old Congolese international, and manager Thomas Frank is confident of completing the deal. He has worked with the player during their time together at Brentford, and he is hoping for a reunion.

Tottenham need more cutting edge in the final third, and the 28-year-old is at the peak of his powers. He had 25 goal contributions last season, and he could transform Spurs in the attack. He is capable of leading the line for them, and he could share the goalscoring burden with Dominic Solanke.

Tottenham keen on Yoane Wissa

Bailey told TBR: “Yoane Wissa’s camp are speaking to four or five different clubs at the moment, Tottenham and Newcastle are two of them, and both would love to sign him.

“Thomas Frank, who worked with Wissa at Brentford, is confident that he would choose Spurs if it came down to it.”

Tottenham need to improve in the attacking unit if they want to fight for trophies next season. They looked too toothless in the attack at times. They need more creativity and finishing ability in the final third. Wissa has proven himself in the Premier League, and he is capable of performing at a higher level.
