2025 Fantasy Outlook
Wissa has improved each year with Brentford, but 2024/25 was the biggest step yet, as he tallied 18 goals and four assists. He didn't lead the team in either category, but he established himself as a top attacking option in the Premier League. Unfortunately, there's some concern for Wissa heading into 2025/26 with a bit of upheaval in the squad from manager to key starters. Repeating last season's output seems unlikely, but as a focal point in the attack with seemingly guaranteed minutes, maybe things won't change that much for him.
Won't face Sunderland
Wissa (not injury related) won't be an option to face Sunderland on Saturday, manager Keith Andrews told media Thursday. "Nothing has changed in terms of my stance," said head coach Keith Andrews when asked about the forward in his pre-match press conference. "There has been no movement. No [he will not feature against Sunderland], I'll focus on the group that's settled and doesn't have issues ongoing."
ANALYSIS
Wissa has yet to play for Brentford this season, and that'll be the case until the transfer window closes on Sep. 1. The forward scored 18 goals across 35 appearances in the 2024-25 campaign for the Bees, so there's no doubt he'd still have a role if available, but the manager wants to solve his transfer situation first before integrating him to the first-squad dynamics. This means the first chance he'll have to make his season debut will come against Chelsea on Saturday, Sep. 13, after the break.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Newcastle to launch new bid?
Newcastle are expected to launch a new bid to sign Wissa, according to The Sun.
ANALYSIS
The Magpies are ready to do everything in their power to secure the services of the DR Congo international, who's also keen on completing a move to St. James' Park. However, Brentford aren't going to give the green light on the move until they can sign a replacement. They already acquire Dango Ouattara, however, so perhaps a move can happen in the coming days.
