Brentford have rejected Nottingham Forest ’s opening bid for Yoane Wissa. Forest are understood to have offered around £20million for the forward, but the Bees have no plans to sell the forward this month. Wissa is a long-term target for Forest, who were interested in a deal last summer and are expected to be undeterred by Brentford’s stance.

Brentford forward Yoane Wissa is the subject of a January transfer bid from Champions League-chasing Nottingham Forest; Brentford do not want to sell the player and are expected to turn down the offer;

Nottingham Forest have submitted a bid for Brentford forward Yoane Wissa. That is according to a report from The Athletic on Tuesday which details the lodging of an offer of £22m for the 28-year-old. Wissa has 18 months remaining on his contract with the Bees, who value him higher than the £22m that has been received.

The report by David Ornstein on X (formerly Twitter) states that Forest have submitted a bid for Wissa, in the region of £22million as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of a Champions League push. However, their bid is 'significantly' below Brentford's valuation of the 28-year-old, and it will not be accepted.
