Tottenham Hotspur have held internal talks over a move to sign Brentford star Yoane Wissa for Thomas Frank, according to The Guardian.

The north London side appointed the former Brentford boss this week to replace Ange Postecoglou, who was sacked after leading the side to a 17th-place finish in the Premier League despite winning the Europa League to qualify for the Champions League.

Now all attention at the club has moved towards the transfer window and building a squad for the new manager, and he is eyeing a reunion with another Brentford star as a result.

Tottenham Want to Sign Wissa

Brentford want at least £40m

Since the arrival fo Frank was confirmed, Spurs have been linked with a host of Brentford players as he looks to shape the squad in his own image.

Now reports suggest that there have been internal talks within the walls at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium about a move to sign DR Congo striker Wissa, who has been described as 'unbelievable' after his most recent campaign with the Bees.

Wissa scored 20 goals in all competitions during the 2024/25 season, including 19 in the Premier League, as he became the club's all-time top scorer in the top-flight with 45 goals.

That form saw him become the subject of a bid from Nottingham Forest during the January transfer window, but Brentford refused to sell. They are more open to a sale this summer, however, they want his value to be met. Currently they value the 28-year-old at £40m as they have the option to extend his contract by a further 12 months until 2027.

Tottenham are also keen on signing Bryan Mbeumo, with a £70m tabled on Friday, while Frank has also been linked with moves to take Nathan Collins and Mikkel Damsgaard with him from west London.

While it's highly unlikely they sign all of those players, Frank is likely to use his relationship with the players to get at least one in, but it remains to be seen if Daniel Levy can agree any deals to get them through the door.
