Crystal Palace Weigh January Move for Tottenham’s Brennan Johnson

Spurs' stance remains pivotal to any approach in a difficult mid-season market.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing The Telegraph report that Crystal Palace have placed the Wales winger on a January shortlist as they assess wide options.
  • Palace’s interest is linked to Ismaila Sarr’s ankle ligament injury and the likelihood he joins Senegal for the Africa Cup of Nations, thinning Oliver Glasner’s flank depth.
  • Johnson’s role has diminished under Thomas Frank, with only three starts in Tottenham’s last 12 Premier League games and a shift to the left affecting output.
  • Coverage notes Tottenham will dictate any move, with some reports adding they are not actively selling and could consider a loan if they secure attacking reinforcements.
  • A Sunday report from Football Insider, quoting former scout Mick Brown, says Spurs are preparing to receive offers and may consider loan or permanent proposals if terms suit their plans.
