It has been mentioned that Spurs are eyeing a move to bring the Congolese forward to North London this summer.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Wissa\u2019s Impressive Record In The Premier League<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Wissa had a productive campaign at the English club as he was responsible for producing a lot of impressive performances for them in the final third. The Congolese talent banged in 20 goals and picked up five assists in 39 appearances for the Saints last season in various competitions.<\/p>\n<p>The 28-year-old led the line well for Southampton after he attempted 2.77 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League. He kept 45.6% of his attempts on target. Wissa has also been tidy when distributing the ball in the opposition half based on his pass success rate of 76.5% in top-flight football (stats via <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/2500cef9\/Yoane-Wissa\">fbref.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Wissa is under contract at the English club until the end of next season which could open the door for Tottenham to sign him on a cut-price deal this summer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_325640\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-325640\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/nottingham-forest-fc-v-brentford-fc-premier-league-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Tottenham Hotspur\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\"  ><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-325640\">NOTTINGHAM, ENGLAND \u2013 MAY 01: Yoane Wissa of Brentford celebrates scoring his team\u2019s second goal during the Premier League match between Nottingham Forest FC and Brentford FC at City Ground on May 01, 2025 in Nottingham, England.

He has proven himself to be a decent finisher up top and can also create the odd chance for his teammates to find the back of the net.<\/p>\n<p>The Congolese talent is also quite clever with his movements in and around the opposition penalty area. Wissa is primarily a centre-forward but can also play as a winger if needed. He is quite familiar with the <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/english-premier-league\/\">Premier League<\/a> and won\u2019t take much time to adjust to life at Tottenham.<\/p>\n<p>Wissa would bring more goals to Spurs boss Thomas Frank\u2019s attack. He has what it takes to compete with Dominic Solanke for a regular starting place at the North London club next season.<\/p>\n<p>At 28, Wissa is playing in his prime which makes him a worthy target for <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/english-premier-league\/tottenham\/\">Tottenham<\/a> to consider in this summer transfer window. He would also help the London outfit compete across all fronts over the next few seasons. Thus, Frank would be wise to try everything in his power to get a deal done for Wissa soon.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent report, The Guardian revealed that Tottenham Hotspur have identified Southampton ace Yoanne Wissa as a target.
