Brentford forward Yoane Wissa has left the team’s pre-season base in Portugal amid growing uncertainty over his future.
BBC Sport has learned the 28-year-old has returned to London from the Bees’ training camp.
Wissa will now hold talks with Brentford director of football Phil Giles with a trio of Premier League clubs keen on him.
Newcastle, Tottenham and Nottingham Forest are among those with a firm interest in the DR Congo international.
All three clubs can offer him European football next season and it is understood agreeing personal terms, particularly with either Tottenham or Newcastle – whose efforts to land Wissa have intensified in the last 48 hours – will not be an issue.
Wissa is understood to have been unsettled by the speculation regarding his future in recent weeks.
He is expected to join back up with the team upon their return to London if he continues to be a Brentford player.
The outcome of the meeting is likely to be pivotal towards how Brentford approach resolving Wissa’s future.
