Newcastle have no qualms about selling Yoane Wissa to a Premier League rival and a number of clubs are circling after learning how small of a bid is required to seal a deal.<\/p>\n
Through sheer desperation after realising the only course of action was to sell Alexander Isak, Newcastle <\/a>bit the bullet and matched Brentford\u2019s extortionate \u00a355m asking price for Yoane Wissa<\/a> late in the last summer transfer window.<\/p>\n Wissa is a fine player in his own right, and let\u2019s not forget, he did bag 19 Premier League goals in his final campaign with the Bees.<\/p>\n However, a package totalling \u00a355m (add-ons included) always looked like a colossal overpayment for a forward who was two days away from turning 29 at the time of his arrival.<\/p>\n A knee injury severely hampered his early progress at St. James\u2019 Park, but since returning, there have been zero signs Wissa will be a success in the north east.<\/p>\n He\u2019s scored just three times in 24 outings for his new club and has fallen out of favour with Eddie Howe.<\/p>\n Despite being fit and available for selection, Wissa has started just one of Newcastle\u2019s last 16 matches. He\u2019s been an unused substitute in five of Newcastle\u2019s last nine league games.<\/p>\n It\u2019s fair to chalk this one up as a bona fide transfer disaster, especially after The Athletic<\/a> brought news 24 hours ago of Newcastle putting Wissa up for sale.<\/p>\n Our colleagues over on TEAMtalk can now shed further light on what happens next in this sorry saga.<\/p>\n BIG MIDWEEK: Arsenal, PSG v Bayern, Emery v Pereira, Palace, Ipswich<\/a><\/p>\n Newcastle want \u00a330m for Yoane Wissa<\/p>\n Transfer insider, Graeme Bailey, revealed Newcastle are ready to sell Wissa if bids of around \u00a330m are received<\/a>.<\/p>\n As such, the Magpies are prepared to cut ties for almost half of the price they paid just one year ago.<\/p>\n Making the situation even grimmer for Newcastle is the fact Brentford inserted a 25 percent sell-on clause into Wissa\u2019s agreement.<\/p>\n As such, and if Newcastle did find a buyer at the \u00a330m price point, \u00a37.5m of the fee would make its way to Brentford, leaving Newcastle with just \u00a322.5m.<\/p>\n
