Yoane Wissa
29-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
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.
Scores twice to book RO32 spot
Wissa scored two goals to go with six shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Uzbekistan.
ANALYSIS
Wissa scored two of DR Congo's three goals as they booked a place in the round of 32 with a 3-1 win over Uzbekistan. He also scored the goal against Portugal, meaning that he has scored three of his nation's four goals in the historic group stage. He won the penalty that he was then able to score himself. This was one of the three fouls that he drew. The two goals were from his two shots on target from his six shots in the game and he has scored all of his shots on target in the tournament.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to leave Newcastle?
Newcastle are expected to part ways with Wissa in the summer, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Wissa has been a disappointment in his first year at Newcastle, and the Magpies are not expected to have a lot of patience with him. Newcastle could be open to parting ways with the DR Congo forward to bring more reinforcements in the attack, even if they can't sell Wissa for the same amount they signed him for 12 months ago.
