Spurs Considering Selling Attacker Welsh International Johnson.

Wales international Brennan Johnson
Brennan Johnson has been capped forty-two times with the Welsh national team after his first appearance in 2020.

Tottenham Hotspur's Europa League final match-winner Brennan Johnson confronts an uncertain future in North London due to growing top-flight attention in the attacker.

Sources suggest that Tottenham, while not actively looking to part with the Welsh international, are open to letting Johnson leave in the event of a acceptable bid.

Crystal Palace are currently the club furthest along in their interest for Johnson, but a number of sides are said to be keeping tabs on his status closely.

A Season of Mixed Fortunes

Johnson was Tottenham's leading Premier League goalscorer last season with 11 goals, and etched his name in club history by netting the winner in their Europa League final victory over United in Bilbao, bringing to a close the club's 17-year wait for a trophy.

However, the departure of the previous manager and arrival of the new head coach has resulted in Johnson playing more of a bit-part role this season.

The Welsh forward, has been granted only 6 top-flight starts this term.

January Market Speculation Mounts

Consequently, a host of clubs have been alerted to his possible departure before the winter transfer window.

Considering his reduced minutes and the looming possibility of a World Cup approaching with Wales, a transfer elsewhere from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium may suit Johnson in January.

Johnson joined Tottenham from Forest in a deal valued at £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has registered 27 goals in all competitions.

Key Points

  • 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 monitoring.
  • The arrival of manager has reduced his playing time significantly.
  • The January transfer window and international commitments could influence a potential move.
