Phil: I'm not too sure on Wissa. Great player but at 29 and with a hefty price tag, he doesn't fit with the players we usually sign. However, it it happens, that seals the fate of Richarlison and Son Heung-min.

Mohammed Kudus has swapped West Ham for Tottenham in a big-money transfer. Spurs have paid a reported £55m for the Ghana international, who has signed a long-term contract.

Leeds United suffered relegation the summer after selling both Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha, while Aston Villa went down just after letting both Fabian Delph and Christian Benteke leave. Going further back, Newcastle went down after losing the likes of James Milner, Shay Given and Charles N’Zogbia in the same year.

Nottingham Forest have renewed their interest in Brentford striker Yoane Wissa; Brentford rejected a bid in January from Forest worth around £22m; Wissa joined Brentford from Lorient in 2021 for around £7.

The player’s familiarity with Thomas Frank, now in charge at Spurs, is significant. With Wissa’s contract situation and Tottenham’s need to increase squad depth, this remains a watchable story in the coming weeks. Kudus’ arrival may energise the attack, but Wissa still fits a tactical and strategic purpose.

Tottenham are now ready to make a bid to sign OGC Nice striker Evann Guessand despite their discussions over Brentford's Yoane Wissa.

Tottenham's pursuit of Yoane Wissa creates a potentially critical problem for Man Utd in their chase for Bryan Mbeumo, with a race against time underway.

Nottingham Forest have returned with another offer for Brentford striker Yoane Wissa, but the approach has been rejected (h/t the Athletic ). Forest submitted a £25 million bid for the 28-year-old in January but could not get the deal over the line.
