Spurs Willing to Selling Forward Welsh International Johnson.
Spurs' Europa League final hero Brennan Johnson is facing an unclear situation at the club due to increasing Premier League attention in his services.
Sources suggest that Tottenham, while not actively seeking to part with the Wales international, are receptive to letting Johnson leave if they get a substantial bid.
The Eagles are presently the club most advanced in their interest for Johnson, but a number of sides are thought to be keeping tabs on his status with interest.
A Season of Contrasts
Johnson was Tottenham's leading top-flight goalscorer the previous campaign with 11 goals, and wrote his name in club history by netting the winner in their European final triumph against United last season, bringing to a close the club's 17-year wait for a major honor.
However, the exit of Ange Postecoglou and appointment of Thomas Frank has resulted in Johnson occupying more of a bit-part role this season.
The 24-year-old, has made only six Premier League starts this term.
Transfer Window Interest Grows
Therefore, a host of clubs have been made aware of his potential availability before the January transfer window.
Due to his limited game time and the prospect of a global tournament on the horizon with his national team, a switch from Tottenham could benefit Johnson next month.
Johnson joined Spurs from Nottingham Forest in a deal valued at £47.5m in the summer of 2023 and has notched 27 goals in all competitions.
Key Points
- The Welsh international's future at Tottenham is currently in doubt.
- Tottenham is not actively marketing him but would consider offers.
- Crystal Palace are at the front of the queue, with other Premier League clubs interested.
- The arrival of manager has reduced his first-team opportunities this season.
- The January transfer window and international commitments could drive a January exit.
