Spurs Willing to Offloading Attacker Welsh International Johnson.
Spurs' European final match-winner Brennan Johnson finds himself in an uncertain future at the club amid rising Premier League attention in his services.
Reports indicate that Tottenham, while not actively looking to sell the Wales international, are considering a potential departure should they receive a substantial offer.
Crystal Palace are currently the club furthest along in their interest for Johnson, but a number of sides are thought to be keeping tabs on his status closely.
Last Campaign of Mixed Fortunes
Johnson was Spurs' top Premier League goalscorer last season with eleven strikes, and secured his place in club history by netting the winner in their European final victory against Manchester United in Bilbao, ending the club's seventeen-year wait for a major honor.
However, the exit of the previous manager and appointment of Thomas Frank has meant Johnson playing more of a peripheral role this season.
The 24-year-old, has been granted only six top-flight starts under Frank.
January Market Interest Grows
Consequently, a number of clubs have been alerted to his possible departure ahead of the winter transfer window.
Considering his reduced minutes and the prospect of a World Cup approaching with his national team, a transfer elsewhere from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium could benefit Johnson in January.
The attacker moved to Tottenham from Forest in a deal valued at £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has registered twenty-seven goals for the club.
Summary
- Brennan Johnson's future at Tottenham is currently in doubt.
- The club is not actively marketing him but would entertain bids.
- Crystal Palace are at the front of the queue, with further Premier League clubs interested.
- The arrival of manager has reduced his first-team opportunities this season.
- The upcoming transfer window and Wales's commitments could influence a potential move.
