The situation has been ongoing for several weeks, and Brentford boss Keith Andrews admitted that he still doesn't know what the end outcome will be. "It's a day-by-day one in terms of Wiss," Andrews explained. "As far as I know, nothing else has happened today, definitely didn't yesterday, so as it was really."

Wissa is unhappy with Brentford's stance on selling him, as the club reportedly wants a £60M+ valuation to be met before engaging in talks. However, some reports suggest that Ouattara is viewed as a replacement for Bryan Mbeumo, who was sold to Manchester United, and therefore Brentford may not be in a hurry to sell Wissa.

The situation is likely to be resolved in the coming weeks, and if Wissa is sold, it could free up Newcastle's Alexander Isak, who is eager to join Liverpool this summer.

Brentford's signing of Ouattara over the weekend was reportedly meant to stop Wissa from leaving, but the DR Congo international is still keen on joining Newcastle.
