- Johnson accepted Palace after talks with Oliver Glasner, with personal terms in place and medical checks underway.
- The winger was left out of Spurs’ Brentford squad as the deal advances, with official club confirmation and paperwork still to come.
- Palace believe the move could be completed in time for Johnson to be involved against Newcastle on Sunday, according to multiple reports.
