Overview

- BBC Sport reports a growing expectation the transfer will be completed, with today's talks seen as pivotal.
- The Telegraph reports Palace are confident Johnson could be registered in time to face Newcastle on Sunday if the process is finalised quickly.
- Multiple reports say Tottenham have permitted Johnson to discuss personal terms with Palace, with suggestions a medical could follow and that he will not be in Spurs' squad to face Brentford.
