Brentford: big blow for Yoane Wissa

At the start of the season, he is one of Brentford’s lethal weapons. Having played for Lorient, Yoane Wissa is having a blast on the other side of the Channel. Perfectly in line with the plans of Thomas Frank, his coach at the Bees, the 28-year-old left winger has compiled 3 goals and 1 assist in 5 games since the start of the season. Problem, a scorer in a few seconds against Manchester City this Saturday, the DR Congo international (27 caps, 5 goals) had to give up his place due to injury shortly before half-time.

This Monday, the London club and its coach gave some rather unreassuring news about the physical condition of its striker: “Wissa’s injury is not good news. It looks like it’s an injury that will last a few months. It’s very frustrating. It will leave a hole but I will find a solution and other players will take over.» A hard blow also for the DRC which needed its attacker before the qualifying matches for the next CAN in Morocco during the October and November gatherings.
