The Magpies were attracted to Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Jorgen Strand Larsen, but they decided not to chase him for the signature of Wissa.
Wissa, 28, has not played for Brentford this season since demanding that the club allow her to move to Newcastle for pre-season.
After seeing his former Brentford teammate Bryan Mbeumo leave the Gtech Stadium to join Manchester United earlier this summer, Wissa told the club she was also hoping to be allowed to leave.
After a long debate, Brentford gave the player the green light to move to St. James' Park.
