Spurs Willing to Offloading Winger Welsh International Johnson.
Tottenham Hotspur's Europa League final match-winner Brennan Johnson is facing an uncertain future in North London amid increasing top-flight attention in his services.
It is understood that the club, while not actively seeking to sell the Wales international, are open to letting Johnson leave should they receive a suitable bid.
The Eagles are reportedly the team furthest along in their pursuit for Johnson, but other teams are said to be keeping tabs on his status with interest.
A Season of Mixed Fortunes
Johnson was Spurs' top Premier League scorer last season with eleven strikes, and secured his place in club history by scoring the winner in their Europa League final triumph over 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 the new head coach has meant Johnson occupying more of a bit-part role this season.
The Welsh forward, has made only six Premier League starts this term.
Transfer Window Interest Mounts
Consequently, a host of clubs have been alerted to his potential availability ahead of the winter transfer window.
Considering his reduced minutes and the prospect of a global tournament approaching with Wales, a move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium may suit Johnson next month.
Johnson joined Tottenham from Nottingham Forest in a deal valued at £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has notched twenty-seven goals in all competitions.
Summary
- Brennan Johnson's position at Spurs is currently in doubt.
- Tottenham is not actively marketing him but would entertain bids.
- Crystal Palace are at the front of the queue, with further Premier League clubs monitoring.
- The arrival of manager has reduced his playing time significantly.
- The upcoming transfer window and Wales's commitments could influence a potential move.
