Forest have reignited their interest in Wissa after seeing a bid worth around £22m rejected in January. Their latest offer falls below that figure. Spurs enquired about Wissa earlier this summer and were told by Brentford that a fee of at least £50m would be required.

It’s the transfer rumour that Brentford fans would have been dreading from the moment Thomas Frank left to join Tottenham. Inevitably, the Dane is now honing in on Yoane Wissa, one of his key players in establishing the Bees as a Premier League force.
