Newcastle United might part ways with striker Yoanne Wissa after a lackluster debut season. Signed for £55 million from Brentford, Wissa only managed four goal involvements, far below the 24 he recorded the previous year. Following the sale of Anthony Gordon to Barcelona for €70 million, Newcastle looks to make room in their wage bill for a significant new signing. Reports indicate the club may be willing to accept a financial loss on Wissa rather than waiting for a higher offer. Wissa is set to represent the Congo DR in the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup.
