Tottenham Open to Offloading Attacker Brennan Johnson.
Spurs' European final match-winner Brennan Johnson is facing an uncertain future in North London amid rising Premier League attention in the attacker.
It is understood that Tottenham, while not actively looking to part with the Welsh international, are open to letting Johnson leave in the event of a suitable offer.
Crystal Palace are presently the team most advanced in their pursuit for Johnson, but a number of sides are believed to be monitoring his situation with interest.
Last Campaign of Mixed Fortunes
Johnson was Tottenham's leading Premier League scorer the previous campaign with 11 goals, and secured his place in Spurs folklore by scoring the winner in their European final triumph against United last season, bringing to a close the club's seventeen-year wait for a trophy.
However, the departure of Ange Postecoglou and arrival of Thomas Frank has resulted in Johnson playing more of a peripheral role in the current campaign.
The Welsh forward, has made only six top-flight starting appearances this term.
Transfer Window Speculation Grows
Therefore, a series of clubs have been made aware of his potential availability ahead of the January transfer window.
Given his limited game time and the looming possibility of a World Cup on the horizon with Wales, a switch from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium may suit Johnson in January.
Johnson joined Spurs from Forest in a deal worth £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has scored 27 goals in all competitions.
Summary
- The Welsh international's future at Tottenham is now uncertain.
- The club is not actively marketing him but would entertain bids.
- Selhurst Park officials are leading the chase, with further Premier League clubs monitoring.
- The arrival of manager has reduced his first-team opportunities significantly.
- The upcoming transfer window and international commitments could influence a potential move.
