Brennan Johnson has recently been closely associated with Tottenham Hotspur.
The Daily Mail’s transfer confidential newsletter claims that Tottenham is preparing a move for the Wales international.
Apparently, once they play Fulham in the League Cup, Tottenham will step up their efforts to sign Johnson.
Nottingham Forest is allegedly bracing for additional interest from Spurs after rejecting a sizable offer for the 22-year-old from Brentford.
One of the best young players in the Premier League, Johnson, is reportedly worth at least £50 million to Forest.
Ian Wright is of the opinion that Tottenham would be able to reach their “final form” if they were to sign the Reds star.
According to the Premier League analyst, Johnson would be the “perfect” addition to Spurs.
Wright told Premier League Productions, “I have seen them linked with Brennan Johnson” (28/8, 2:40pm).
“That midfield, in and around there, with Bissouma, Sarr, Bentancur, and Maddison, then with Richarlison up front.
If yo can find a Brennan Johnson, you will be dealing with a Tottenham team that is beginning to cause a lot of issues.
“If they can sign another winger, like the dynamic Brennan Johnson. He would be the ideal player for Tottenham.
In the same way that I saw it with Madison, I could fully picture it. The Tottenham would then begin to seem really dangerous in their final shape, in my opinion.
Johnson being mentioned in connection with Tottenham is not surprising. In the Premier League, he has demonstrated his abilities for all to see.
He appears to have a bright career ahead of him and may do a good job for Spurs or any other significant top-flight team.
Although Forest aren’t in need of selling, it would be difficult for Tottenham or any other suitors to sign him.
Nevertheless, Spurs have an intriguing lead here. Watch what transpires over the next few days.
