New Yoane Wissa price revealed, and it is very affordable for Tottenham and Newcastle

Newcastle United are optimistic about beating Tottenham Hotspur to the signature of Yoane Wissa despite seeing their opening offer turned down by Brentford.

While a number of reports backed Tottenham to press ahead with a move for Wissa earlier this month, the North London club do not appear to have made a move for the striker so far.

Some sources have said that Wissa is no longer seen as a priority by Spurs after they landed Mohammed Kudus from West Ham.

Additionally, Thomas Frank has also hinted that Tottenham are unlikely to sign another striker this summer.

Now, The Daily Mail’s Craig Hope has taken to social media to reveal that there is confidence at St James’ Park that they can secure a deal for the DR Congo international.

Hope asserts that the belief in the North East is that a bid of around £30m will be enough to prise the 28-year-old away from the Gtech Community Stadium.

Additionally, various sources have reported that Richarlison has informed Spurs that he would prefer to stay despite attracting plenty of transfer interest.
