Spurs Willing to Offloading Winger Welsh International Johnson.
Spurs' European final hero Brennan Johnson finds himself in an uncertain future at the club due to increasing top-flight interest in the attacker.
Reports indicate that the club, while not actively seeking to sell the Wales international, are open to letting Johnson leave if they get a acceptable bid.
Crystal Palace are currently the team most advanced in their pursuit for Johnson, but several clubs are said to be watching developments with interest.
Last Campaign of Contrasts
Johnson was Tottenham's leading Premier League goalscorer last season with 11 strikes, and secured his place in Spurs folklore by scoring the decisive goal in their European final victory over Manchester United last season, bringing to a close the club's 17-year wait for a major honor.
However, the departure of Ange Postecoglou and appointment of Thomas Frank has resulted in Johnson playing more of a bit-part role in the current campaign.
The 24-year-old, has been granted only 6 Premier League starting appearances under Frank.
January Market Speculation Grows
As a result, a number of clubs have been made aware of his potential availability ahead of the January transfer window.
Given his lack of action and the looming possibility of a World Cup approaching with Wales, a transfer elsewhere from Tottenham could benefit Johnson next month.
The attacker moved to Tottenham from Nottingham Forest in a deal valued at £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has registered twenty-seven goals for the club.
Key Points
- Brennan Johnson's position at Spurs is currently in doubt.
- Tottenham is not actively marketing him but would consider offers.
- Selhurst Park officials are at the front of the queue, with other Premier League clubs interested.
- A change of manager has reduced his playing time this season.
- The January transfer window and international commitments could drive a January exit.
