KEITH Andrews could include wantaway Yoane Wissa in the Brentford squad for today’s home game against Aston Villa.
-
Wissa was not involved in Brentford’s Premier League opener at Nottingham Forest, which they lost 3-1, with the DR Congo forward attracting a bid from Newcastle.
“He's been training with the team,” Brentford boss Andrews said of Wissa at his pre-match press conference.
“In terms of being involved this weekend I'll make a decision on the squad tomorrow, but he's part of the group this week.
“He’s a Brentford player right now. My stance around Yoane all along is I don’t want him to leave.
“That hasn't really changed in any way, shape or form. I keep going back to being understanding of his situation, but for me I don’t want to lose a player of that quality.
