Wissa training in London while in transfer limbo

- Published
Yoane Wissa remains in limbo after leaving Brentford's 10-day training camp in Portugal amid transfer interest from Newcastle.
The 28-year-old striker threatened to never play for the club again during talks with Brentford director of football Phil Giles and is keen to play Champions League football.
His future remains unclear as he has been training at Brentford's training base instead of in Portugal with a small group of coaches and other players for this interim period.
The sessions are not at the level of intensity or tactical detail to the ones conducted by new manager Keith Andrews, but are enough to keep the Congo international fit.
The rest of Brentford's squad return from Portugal on Tuesday, will be given a day off and return to training on Thursday before a pre-season friendly at Loftus Road against QPR on Saturday.
It is currently unclear whether Wissa will re-integrate himself in the squad until either Newcastle make a further bid or walk away, with Nottingham Forest also known to have expressed an interest.
