22:01 BST 1 September
Newcastle have completed the signing of Yoane Wissa from Brentford for a fee of £50m plus £5m in add-ons.
The 28-year-old striker has agreed a long-term deal and will wear the number nine shirt at St James' Park.
After scoring 49 goals in 149 appearances for the Bees, Wissa has not played for the club this season after accusing Brentford of "unduly standing in my way" over a move to the North East.

We asked for your views on what is still needed by Brentford on transfer deadline day.
Here are some of your comments:
Tim: Get shot of Yoane Wissa. Simple as that. He's lost the fans through his petulance and is not going to get them back.
Sid: Our best buy during this window is Michael Kayode. We should let Wissa go in a swap deal for a young striker.
Laura: We need someone to replace Norgaard and provide that crucial link between midfield and attack.
Charlie: If Neal Maupay is still free then sign him up. We love him, he loves us and we are his home.
Richard: After Wissa's statement on Sunday, we need to get him out. He has shown no signs of professionalism. We don't know where the club is at in terms of a replacement, but I am sure they know what they are doing. We hope!
Ian: Possibly a few ins and outs at the Gtech. The 'spine' of last season's Brentford has gone, from manager to players. It is now time to rebuild with a forward and an experienced midfielder.

Today is the second transfer deadline day of the summer following a brief closure in June because of the Club World Cup.
In a change to previous windows, clubs only have until 19:00 BST to complete deals, bringing the Premier League in line with the EFL, Italy's Serie A, France's Ligue 1 and Germany's Bundesliga. The window in Scotland and Spain remains open until 23:00 BST.
It has already been a hectic window - with a number of storylines still to be resolved - but whether it turns out to be a day of transfer action or a pretty quiet one for your club, you will be able to keep across it all on BBC Sport.
Sunderland 2-1 Brentford - the fans' verdictpublished at 14:30 BST 31 August

We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Sunderland and Brentford.
Here are some of your comments:
Sunderland fans
Ian: Three points for a dogged performance. Never stopped running and trying after a stalemate first half. Some new Sunderland heroes in the making.
Michael: Fantastic result even if the performance wasn't our best. The centre-backs were superb. Even though Reinildo gave away the penalty, I thought he was outstanding. Granit Xhaka, again, controlled the midfield. Six points after three games is a brilliant return.
Reece: We rode our luck at times but the team showed they have real fight in them. Excellent performance from Nordi Mukiele stepping in to cover for Dan Ballard's absence.
Ronnie: The slogan going into the play-offs last season was "'Til The End" and we embodied that in all three play-off games. Against Brentford, Sunderland provided more evidence of the refusal to give up which personifies their recent attitude. Pride in the shirt is woven into the new signings and the Stadium of Light might prove a challenging environment for some this season.
Brentford fans
George: It is hard not to fixate on the decision to hand the ball to Kevin Schade for the penalty. I imagine the intention was to boost his confidence and give him his first goal of the season, but that has now squarely backfired. I worry for his confidence going into our next game.
Andy: When you don't take the opportunities given to you in the Premier League, you get punished - and that's what happened to us.
James: Our inability to close out a game from a winning position comes to the forefront once again. Schade - to my knowledge - has never taken a penalty for us before. Why then? Igor Thiago should be the designated penalty-taker.
Paul: Poor again away from home. Such bad game management again at the end of a game. I don't know what the answer is, but I'm not looking forward to the season ahead. It's going to be a long one.
'I feel compelled to make it clear I want to leave Brentford' - Wissa speaks outpublished at 10:39 BST 31 August

Striker Yoane Wissa has called on Brentford to "keep their word" and let him leave before the transfer deadline, accusing the club of "unduly standing in his way" of a move to Newcastle United.
Wissa has made clear he wants to leave for St James' Park and has not been training or playing with the first team this season.
Brentford have rejected two offers, with the latest being £35m guaranteed, plus a further £5m in add-ons.
In a statement on Instagram, Wissa said: "I have stayed silent for much of the summer, but with just hours remaining of the transfer window I feel compelled to make it clear that I want to leave Brentford.
"I believe the club are unduly standing in my way despite a series of fair offers throughout the summer.
"As the window comes to an end, the club has now significantly changed its position, going against what was communicated.
"This has left me in a difficult and frustrating position. The promise that I could leave this summer has not been fulfilled. It saddens me to have to write that, and I maintain total respect for the club and its fans.
"Being made to stay beyond this summer will only tarnish four wonderful years at this incredible club and so I ask Brentford's owners and directors to now honour their promise to let me leave in the final hours of the window.
"I want to make it clear that I have not acted unprofessionally, nor do I wish to leave Brentford on bad terms. I have been transparent in my position throughout. I have continued to communicate openly with the club and conduct myself in a way that reflects my values as both a footballer and a human being.
"I remain hopeful that a fair and reasonable resolution can still be found before the transfer window shuts.
"In the meantime, I must do what I feel is right for my career and family, and insist that Brentford honour their promise to let me join a new club and at a fair price."

While Jordan Henderson and Mikkel Damsgaard both showed glimpses of their class Brentford appeared relatively content to keep Sunderland at bay in the first period.
But a more assertive second half could and should have delivered the sort of victory that would have changed the narrative over their start to the season.
With Yoane Wissa still absent as speculation over his future rages, until Brazilian forward Thiago intervened the visitors lacked conviction in the final third, which was underlined by Schade's tame effort from 12 yards out.
There will also likely be a little scrutiny attached to Caoimhin Kelleher's role in the Sunderland winner.
The Republic of Ireland goalkeeper had a couple of shaky moments before he got a hand to Isidor's header but failed to prevent the ball from finding the back of the net.
Sunderland 2-1 Brentford: What Andrews saidpublished at 18:46 BST 30 August

Brentford manager Keith Andrews speaking to BBC Match of the Day after their 2-1 defeat at Sunderland: "We grew into the game. I was not entirely pleased with the first-half performance. I thought we could have played with a little bit more conviction and control.
"Obviously it was a very topsy-turvy second half. Players since they've come back from pre-season have been practicing their penalties. There is no issue on that. Players will miss penalties. I am okay with that.
"I thought one was a rugby tackle and one was body contact. I thought we should have had another one in the first half. We are diligent in how we try to mark and how officials and VAR officials will see things.
On the future of Yoanne Wissa: "Our stance has not changed through the summer. Unless anything has happened today, I expect Yoanne to be a Brentford player come Tuesday."

Brentford striker Igor Thiago has scored three goals in his last four appearances in all competitions for the Bees after failing to find the net in each of his previous eight games for the club.
Sunderland v Brentford: Team newspublished at 14:02 BST 30 August

Sunderland make two changes to the side that lost 2-0 at Burnley in the Premier League last weekend. Nordi Mukiele and Enzo Le Fee both start in place of the injured Dan Ballard and Simon Adingra.
Sutton's predictions: Sunderland v Brentfordpublished at 11:03 BST 30 August

Sunderland had that brilliant start against West Ham and they had a tight game with Burnley. I thought it'd be a draw but Burnley ultimately got the win.
Brentford played very well at Aston Villa and deserved their win in what was a massive result for Keith Andrews.
I've said before I know people have written Brentford off but they are an experienced, battle-hardened Premier League side. I think their win last week would've done them the world of good. They should win again on Saturday.
Sunderland v Brentford: key stats and talking pointspublished at 19:23 BST 29 August

Sunderland and Brentford meet in matchround three with both sides aiming to secure their second Premier League win of the season. BBC Sport examines some of the key themes before Saturday's fixture at the Stadium of Light.
New kids on the block
For the first time since May 2023, the Premier League's bottom three contains no promoted teams from last season's Championship.
All three of Sunderland, Leeds and Burnley have won one of their opening two league games of the campaign – a feat that took last season's trio until November to achieve.
The signs, therefore, look positive that perhaps for the first time in three years at least one of the promoted sides can avoid relegation.
Home form key for Sunderland
This summer has seen 12 new signings arrive at the Stadium of Light for an initial expense of over £140m and head coach Régis Le Bris admitted after last week's defeat to Burnley that his side needed to "learn and grow", emphasising the fact that his new-look team "struggled to create rhythm in the final third".
If they are to succeed in their objective of avoiding an immediate return to the second tier the Black Cats will likely need to rely on their home form.
A vociferous backing of 46,000 Mackems drove Les Bris' side to a 3-0 victory against West Ham on the opening day to get them off to the perfect start.
However, last season in the Championship the North East side won just 12 of 23 matches in their own stadium, leaving them with just the sixth best home record in the division.

Sunderland may need to improve their home form to survive this season
Brentford win - but without the ball
Brentford, meanwhile, found their own home comforts last week, beating Aston Villa 1-0 to ease the initial concerns that followed their 3-1 opening day defeat at Nottingham Forest.
In a game that boss Keith Andrews hailed as "scrappy, ugly…..and I loved it", Brentford showed their resilience was still evident after substantial summer departures.
The Bees made just 178 passes to Villa's 587 while enjoying only 24% possession, their lowest ever in a Premier League victory and the 18th lowest share of any winning side in the competition. They averaged 47% possession when winning matches in the Premier League last season.

Brentford's style of play was different in their win against Aston Villa
Despite defeat at Forest, no team have won more points away from home in 2025 than Brentford's 23, with seven wins the club's joint-most ever in a top-flight calendar year away from home.
Andrews on Wissa, transfers and Sunderlandpublished at 16:04 BST 28 August

Brentford boss Keith Andrews has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game against Sunderland at Stadium of Light (kick-off 15:00).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Yoane Wissa remains out of contention as Andrews focuses on the "settled group" of players who don't have any "issues ongoing". The Bees boss confirmed there has been "no movement" on a potential move away and is confident the striker will be at Brentford once the transfer window closes.
The squad remains the same as the one that travelled to Bournemouth on Tuesday with the exception of the returning Jordan Henderson.
That victory over the Cherries in the Carabao Cup showed Brentford with a back five defensive line and Andrews wants his side to remain "adaptable" and "flexible" to changing systems, but didn't confirm if they will be staying with that formation.
When asked about any additional incomings or outgoings this summer, he said: "Weird and wonderful things could happen in the last few days. Possibly one or two of the younger players may go on loan if we feel it's right."
He continued: "I'm pretty content with what we've got. If the club feel it's right to bring someone in that will add to that, then obviously we'll try to do that."
On facing Sunderland he said: "I can't wait for it. It's a traditional ground and, with the journey they've been on as a football club, having dipped down one or two divisions at times, they have a fanbase that is clearly so passionate and engaged.
Andrews added: "I'm really looking forward to the atmosphere and I know our players will feed off that. We saw the best of them in periods against West Ham - they can be very, very dangerous."
