Nottingham Forest have submitted a £22m bid for Yoane Wissa, which Brentford have resolved to reject. Thomas Frank has dismissed the notion Brentford could sell the striker, who has scored 11 goals in 19 Premier League matches this season, in this transfer window.

Forest want another striker to alleviate the pressure on the in-form Chris Wood. Only Mohamed Salah, Alexander Isak and Erling Haaland have outscored Wood, who has 14 goals in the Premier League this season.
