Andrews said he would like Wissa to be part of the squad but added it is "very hard to know" what will happen in relation to his future.

Brentford manager Keith Andrews says striker Yoane Wissa will not be included in the squad for the team’s opening Premier League game against Nottingham Forest on Sunday amid uncertainty over his future at the London club.

Brentford have already added one new attacker in Dango Ouattara, who joined from Bournemouth for a club-record £42.5m fee. The Burkina Faso international can play on either side or as a number nine and is viewed as a replacement for Bryan Mbeumo.
