Spurs Considering Offloading Attacker Welsh International Johnson.
Tottenham Hotspur's Europa League final hero Brennan Johnson is facing an unclear situation in North London amid rising top-flight attention in his services.
It is understood that the club, while not actively looking to part with the Wales international, are considering a potential departure should they receive a substantial offer.
The Eagles are currently the club most advanced in their interest for Johnson, but a number of sides are thought to be watching developments with interest.
Last Campaign of Mixed Fortunes
Johnson was Spurs' top Premier League goalscorer the previous campaign with 11 strikes, and wrote his name in club history by scoring the decisive goal in their European final victory over Manchester United last season, bringing to a close the club's seventeen-year wait for a major honor.
However, the departure of Ange Postecoglou and arrival of the new head coach has meant Johnson playing more of a peripheral role in the current campaign.
The Welsh forward, has made only six top-flight starts under Frank.
January Window Interest Grows
Therefore, a number of clubs have been made aware of his potential availability before the winter transfer window.
Considering his limited game time and the prospect of a World Cup on the horizon with Wales, a move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium could benefit Johnson next month.
The attacker moved to Spurs from Forest in a deal worth £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has notched 27 goals for the club.
Summary
- The Welsh international's future at Tottenham is currently in doubt.
- Tottenham is not pushing for a sale but would consider offers.
- Selhurst Park officials are at the front of the queue, with other Premier League clubs monitoring.
- A change of manager has limited his first-team opportunities significantly.
- The upcoming transfer window and international commitments could drive a potential move.
