Brentford are closing in on a £42.5million deal for Bournemouth forward Dango Ouattara, talkSPORT understands. A club-to-club agreement is expected imminently, and Ouattara is keen on the move

Brentford have agreed a £42.5million deal for Bournemouth winger Dango Ouattara. Brentford are set to pay a club-record fee for Ouattara, who was authorised to travel for a medical on Friday. Reports suggest that Brentford will pay a £37m fixed fee, plus add-ons, for the Burkina Faso international.

A former Brentford boss has told Yoane Wissa to "f*ck off" amid his reported impending move to Newcastle United.

Brentford and Bournemouth have reached an agreement for the transfer of Dango Ouattara. The Burkinabé winger will join the Bees for €40 million plus bonuses. The arrival of the Burkinabé winger is expected to pave the way for Yoane Wissa's move to Newcastle.

Wissa may not be on his way to St James' Park after news emerged from Bournemouth over the proposed move for Dango Ouattara.

Newcastle are set to up their interest in Yoane Wissa after Brentford agreed a £37m deal to sign Dango Ouattara from Bournemouth.

Sky Sports reporter Keith Downie reports that the Magpies expect to swiftly move for Wissa now that the Bees have found a replacement in Ouattara. The Burkinabe winger is joining Keith Andrews' side in a club-record £42m deal.

However, after Benjamin Sesko chose Manchester United over a move to St James’ Park, joining names such as Liam Delap, Joao Pedro, and Mbeumo in turning down Eddie Howe’s side, Wissa is now at the front of the queue.
