The future of DR Congo international Yoane Wissa is once again under scrutiny in the Premier League, with interest growing from several English clubs despite a difficult spell in front of goal this season.
Wissa, who has struggled for consistency in the current campaign, is attracting attention from Fulham, who are reportedly considering him as a potential option to strengthen their attack ahead of next season.
The London club are believed to be monitoring his situation closely as they prepare for possible changes in their forward line, particularly if Raúl Jiménez departs.
Newcastle United are also part of the wider picture surrounding the striker, with the club’s long-term attacking plans still unclear.
However, there is no indication that an early or mutual termination of his contract is being considered, meaning any departure would require formal negotiations and a transfer fee.
Despite interest from elsewhere, Wissa’s recent form has raised questions about his immediate impact at top level.
He has managed just one Premier League goal this season in 15 appearances, and three goals in 22 matches across all competitions.
Those figures mark a significant dip compared to previous campaigns and have influenced discussions around his role moving forward.
The situation comes at a time when Newcastle are themselves going through a difficult spell.
Manager Eddie Howe’s side have suffered a run of five consecutive defeats in all competitions, including a 1-0 loss to Arsenal that left them 14th in the Premier League table.
The club now sit just eight points above the relegation zone, adding further pressure to decisions around squad depth and attacking options.
Both Wissa and fellow forward Nick Woltemade were introduced from the bench in that defeat, but were unable to change the outcome.
Despite backing both players publicly, there is growing uncertainty over whether they will remain central to Newcastle’s plans next season, particularly if the club looks to reshape its attack in the summer.
Fulham’s interest in Wissa is driven by the need to refresh their frontline, with the DR Congo international seen as a possible candidate to provide pace and movement in attack.
However, any deal is expected to depend on negotiations meeting Newcastle’s valuation, as well as competition from other interested clubs.
The striker’s situation is therefore shaping into a broader transfer storyline, with multiple Premier League sides monitoring developments.
While Fulham are currently viewed as the most active suitors, other top-flight clubs are understood to be keeping a watching brief.
For Wissa, the coming months could prove decisive.
Once considered a reliable attacking option, his recent struggles have placed his future under renewed scrutiny.
Whether that leads to a move or a fight to regain form at Newcastle remains to be seen, but interest in his services suggests he remains a valued option in the Premier League market.
