Tottenham Willing to Offloading Attacker Brennan Johnson.

Brennan Johnson in action
Brennan Johnson has earned 42 times with the Welsh national team since making his debut in 2020.

Tottenham Hotspur's Europa League final match-winner Brennan Johnson is facing an uncertain future at the club amid increasing 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 acceptable bid.

The Eagles are currently the side most advanced in their interest for Johnson, but other teams are said to be watching developments closely.

Last Campaign of Mixed Fortunes

Johnson was Tottenham's leading top-flight scorer last season with 11 strikes, and etched his name in club history by scoring the decisive goal in their European final victory over Manchester United last season, ending the club's 17-year wait for a major honor.

However, the exit of Ange Postecoglou and arrival of Thomas Frank has resulted in Johnson playing more of a peripheral role this season.

The Welsh forward, has made only 6 Premier League starting appearances under Frank.

Transfer Market Interest Mounts

As a result, a series of clubs have been made aware of his possible departure ahead of the winter transfer window.

Considering his lack of action and the looming possibility of a global tournament approaching with Wales, a move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium could benefit Johnson in January.

The attacker moved to Tottenham from Nottingham 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 position at Spurs is currently in doubt.
  • The club is not pushing for a sale but would entertain bids.
  • Selhurst Park officials are leading the chase, with other Premier League clubs monitoring.
  • The arrival of manager has reduced his playing time this season.
  • The upcoming transfer window and Wales's commitments could drive a potential move.
