Wissa removed all association with Brentford from his Instagram account as he attempted to pressure the club into selling him to Newcastle. However, the deal is now unlikely to happen this summer, with less than a week remaining in the transfer window.
Newcastle has also missed out on other targets this transfer window, including Hugo Ekitike, Benjamin Sesko, Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, James Trafford, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo. If no replacement for Isak is found, he may stay with the club, which has received no formal bid for him since their initial offer was rejected.
The club's failure to secure a deal for Wissa has put pressure on their plans to sign a replacement for Isak. The club needs to find an alternative to ensure a smooth transition for the Swedish international player.
