Football transfer rumours: Brentford exodus continues with Wissa to Newcastle?

Being on a pre-season tour can make or break a player’s future. Yoane Wissa has left Brentford’s after the club turned down a £25m bid for his services from Newcastle, as he is eager to have a natter with the head honchos at the Gtech Community Stadium to sort out his future. The forward wants to test himself in the Champions League and does not want to be held back by something as minor as a club being unwilling to pay his full valuation. It is expected that the Magpies will up their offer in the coming days to a fee in the region of £30m plus add-ons. The Bees are not particularly keen on losing another striker days after selling Bryan Mbeumo to Manchester United.Mateo Joseph has told Daniel Farke and Leeds that he wants out of Elland Road. The Spain Under-21s striker did not travel with the rest of the squad for their pre-season jaunt to Germany. Joseph was the subject of a bid in excess of £10m from Real Betis but Leeds want more for their young striker. “He came to me and to us and said that he wants a new challenge and would like to have a move,” Farke said. “He has also hinted that he prefers a move to Spain due to his Spanish roots. And yes, obviously that was more or less his call.”It was quite clear for the entirety of last season that West Ham needed to sign a new striker. It looks like that man could be Callum Wilson, who is available for absolutely nothing after leaving Newcastle at the end of his contract. Graham Potter may want to gloss over the fact Wilson scored only once in 22 appearances in all competitions last season.Bayern Munich spent ages trying to sign João Palhinha from Fulham and then, like all these things, it did not work out as all parties imagined. The Portuguese midfielder was a bit-part player in his first year in the Bundesliga, meaning he could be looking for a way out. A return to London is one potential option, as Tottenham are monitoring Palhinha’s situation, which could possibly be summed up as: available for transfer.It’s been a relatively quiet summer at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, but things could be about to get a little bit more interesting for Everton. David Moyes seems to fancy the Moroccan left-back Adam Aznou, currently at Bayern Munich, as he seeks competition for Vitalii Mykolenko.Wolves have barely troubled the scorers at all but that looks set to change with the signing of the Fluminense winger Jhon Arias. They thought they would do likewise with the Almería right-back Marc Pubill after an agreement was made, but the defender looks set to join Atlético Madrid instead.skip past newsletter promotionafter newsletter promotionAnd down in League Two, the Notts County striker Alassana Jatta has had his head turned by interest from Casa Pia in Portugal, in addition to a League One and Turkish side.
