Yoane Wissa has etched his name into Brentford’s history books, becoming the club’s first player to score 40 Premier League goals. The Congolese forward reached the milestone with a crucial strike in the 1-1 draw against Bournemouth on Saturday, March 15, 2025.
Wissa Makes History
Trailing early in the match, Brentford found themselves under pressure, but Wissa once again proved to be their go-to man.
In the 30th minute, the 27-year-old forward capitalized on a perfectly placed pass from Cameroonian teammate Bryan Mbeumo, finishing clinically to bring the Bees level.
The goal not only rescued a point for Brentford but also cemented Wissa’s place as the club’s most prolific scorer in the Premier League era.
Dynamic Partnership with Mbeumo
The synergy between Wissa and Mbeumo continues to be a vital component of Brentford’s attacking strategy.
Mbeumo, a key playmaker for the Bees, has frequently assisted Wissa this season, and their understanding on the pitch has troubled opposition defenses.
Their latest link-up against Bournemouth further highlighted their attacking chemistry, which remains crucial to Brentford’s campaign.
A Key Figure in Brentford’s Attack
Wissa’s impact extends beyond his milestone goal. With 15 goals across all competitions this season, he has been instrumental in Brentford’s push for a strong league finish.
His consistency and ability to deliver in crucial moments reinforce his importance to the squad as they aim to secure a solid standing in the Premier League table.
