How far will Brentford go to keep Yoane Wissa?

Newcastle run into Brentford's wall despite ramping up their financial efforts. How far will Brentford go to keep Yoane Wissa? Yoane Wissa finds himself facing a total blockade from his club Brentford, who have turned down a new record offer from Newcastle United worth £40 million. The Magpies' latest bid included £35 million up front, plus an additional £5 million in bonuses. Brentford's management is standing firm in the face of Newcastle's repeated overtures, having already rejected an initial £25 million bid earlier this summer. The Bees have not set an official asking price for their star forward, but their demands appear to far exceed the amounts tabled so far. Newcastle ramp up the chase but Brentford dig in Newcastle are relentless in their pursuit of the DR Congo international. After their initial £25 million offer was knocked back this summer, the Magpies upped their bid this week to £40 million including bonuses. Yet Brentford remain unmoved, and according to some sources, are now demanding more than €60 million to part ways with their top scorer. Transfer window closing in, Yoane Wissa growing increasingly frustrated The arrival of Dango Ouattara from Bournemouth for a club-record €43 million has done nothing to break the deadlock. Signed on a five-year deal with an optional extra year, the Burkinabe was expected to pave the way for Wissa's departure, but Brentford are holding their ground. With the summer transfer window drawing to a close and the outcome of this saga still up in the air, the Congolese forward is finding the situation increasingly difficult as he remains sidelined while the Premier League season is already underway. On Tyneside, the urgency is mounting as Newcastle look to bolster their attacking options, particularly with the uncertainty surrounding Alexander Isak. The Magpies may be forced to return with an improved offer to try to convince Brentford to part ways with their striker—or else look elsewhere for reinforcements.

Ascension sells Alexian Village senior living community to Chicago-area firm for $22 million

An Ascension Health affiliate has sold a large Milwaukee senior living community to a Chicago-area firm. The 27-acre Alexian Village, 9301 N. 76th St., was purchased by AOM Realty LLC for $22.25 million, according to a deed posted online by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue on Aug. 18. AOM Realty is an affiliate of Skokie, Illinois-based AA Healthcare Inc. The firm operates 13 nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Illinois and Wisconsin, according to its LinkedIn page. That includes five operations in the Milwaukee area: Aria care centers in Brookfield, Waukesha and West Allis, and Crossroads care centers in Milwaukee and Pewaukee. AA Healthcare President Aaron Topper couldn't be immediately reached for more information about the firm's plans for Alexian Village. It's been renamed Avina of Milwaukee, according to the property's Facebook page. Avina/Alexian Village has around 300 housing units for independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing care. The property sale led to an early termination of a kitchen services contract TouchPoint Services, also known as Compass Group, had at Alexian Village. That led to layoffs of 52 workers in August, according to a notice filed with the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development. Ascension representatives didn't immediately respond to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's questions about why the health care system sold Alexian Village. St. Louis-based Ascension Health in 2012 acquired Alexian Village through its acquisition of Alexian Brothers Health System, which was based in Arlington Heights, Illinois.

Update on future of County Ground redevelopment

Swindon Town and the supporters' trust have been in discussions over a new plan for the redevelopment of the Nigel Eady County Ground. In June, TrustSTFC announced that plans to redevelop the Don Rogers Stand had been voted against by their members, with those in favour not reaching the 75 per cent threshold required for assent, with 478 votes cast in favour and 477 against. Swindon had unveiled their new plans in April, which would have seen the Don Rogers Stand given a new golden façade, updated facilities for supporters in the concourse, a new café/bar area, new hospitality and conferencing facilities, and glass-fronted corporate boxes. There has been no update on progress since the day the vote was announced on June 13, with Swindon issuing a statement saying they would 'take a moment to reflect on the result and review in due course.' READ MORE: Swindon Town fans vote against County Ground redevelopment Swindon Town issue statement after result of stadium vote Swindon Town stadium vote must become motivation for club Neil Hutchings, Chair of TrustSTFC, said after the vote: 'We remain committed and available to work with the club on the reasons that have led us to where we are today.' The Adver is aware that informal discussions have taken place among members of the Joint Venture board, which includes representatives from the club, TrustSTFC, and Nigel Eady trustees, over the summer. A formal board meeting was held in July to discuss the key takeaways from the initial vote and develop a strategy for the next steps, and has since been followed up. TrustSTFC board member Nick Coote wrote in the trust's programme column for the home match against Barnet about the next steps for the redevelopment following this meeting. In this, he discussed the feedback that had been included as a rationale for why members voted as they did on the proposal, which had been collated into six key reasons why the plans did not pass. These were: the master plan needed to be better explained so fans understood why the Don Rogers Stand was the starting point; detailed proposals to improve all concourses in the initial plan; explain how the redevelopment would be managed via a legal agreement to control changes and variations; a more detailed financing scheme; concerns around the business plan which was created; and improving communication around this project and all aspects of the club. Coote also confirmed that a further update surrounding the redevelopment would be forthcoming soon, following the board meeting, which has already taken place.
