Yoane Wissa believes he is performing at the highest level of his career as he continues to deliver standout performances in the Premier League for Brentford.
The DR Congo international has been a driving force in Brentford’s campaign, contributing 15 goals in the league so far.
His consistency and attacking prowess have not gone unnoticed, with the forward himself acknowledging his current form in an interview with Sky Sports: “I’m definitely in the best shape of my life.”
Wissa’s confidence is supported by his numbers.
With the Premier League season heading into its final stretch, the 27-year-old remains a key figure in Brentford’s attacking setup.
His recent goal against Arsenal—an equaliser in a 1-1 draw at the Emirates—marked his 41st in England’s top flight, underscoring his impact in high-profile fixtures.
The Arsenal game wasn’t just another notch in his scoring tally; it also coincided with Wissa reaching a career milestone—his 100th professional goal.
For a player plying his trade at a club outside the traditional top six, the achievement is particularly significant.
Wissa’s role at Brentford extends far beyond finding the net.
Since his arrival from FC Lorient in 2021, he has also chipped in with nine assists, further enhancing his reputation as a complete forward.
His ability to link play, stretch defences, and create chances for teammates has made him a vital component in Thomas Frank’s tactical plans.
“He’s the kind of player who shows up when it matters,” said a Brentford source. “Whether it’s against the bottom of the table or the league leaders, Wissa has a knack for changing games.”
The Congolese forward has also gained recognition for his resilience and consistency.
Rarely does he go more than a game or two without contributing to the scoreboard, a testament to his sharpness and mental fortitude.
His performances this season have not only strengthened Brentford’s attacking depth but also raised his profile within the Premier League.
As Brentford look to finish the season strongly, Wissa’s form will be crucial.
And with the player himself declaring peak physical and mental condition, few would bet against him adding to his already impressive numbers before the campaign concludes.
