Overview
- Multiple outlets report an agreement between the clubs worth about £35m, with the transfer contingent on Johnson's approval plus personal terms and a medical.
- Bournemouth are also interested as they plan for Antoine Semenyo's expected £65m move to Manchester City, creating potential competition for Johnson's signature.
- Johnson has started six Premier League matches this season after Mohammed Kudus' arrival pushed him down the pecking order, despite finishing last season as Spurs' top scorer and netting the Europa League final winner.
- A £35m sale would represent a loss against Tottenham's £47.5m outlay in 2023 and would rank as one of Spurs' largest departures, while potentially setting a club-record fee for Palace.
- Tottenham are evaluating forward options for January, with targets previously explored including Semenyo and Manchester City's Savinho, as they prepare for possible squad reshaping.
