[BBC - Sami Mokbel] Spurs open to selling Brennan Johnson. Brennan Johnson, who has played 42 senior matches for the Welsh national team since debuting in 2020, and who scored the winning goal that led Tottenham Hotspur to the Europa League title, now faces an uncertain future amid interest from other Premier League clubs. BBC Sport understands that while Spurs are not actively seeking to sell Johnson, they are willing to let him go if an appropriate offer is received. Currently, Crystal Palace is showing the most concrete interest in signing Johnson, and other clubs are also reported to be closely monitoring his situation. Johnson scored 11 goals in the Premier League last season, making him the team's top scorer. He also cemented his name in Tottenham history by scoring the winning goal against Manchester United in the Europa League final held in Bilbao, Spain, breaking the club's 17-year trophy drought. However, since manager Ange Postecoglou left and Thomas Frank took over as the new boss, Johnson appears to have been marginalized this season. Johnson has only started 6 league matches under Frank this season. Consequently, numerous clubs are exploring the possibility of signing Johnson ahead of the January transfer window. Given his lack of playing time and the upcoming World Cup schedule for the Welsh national team, leaving Tottenham next month might be the right choice for Johnson. Johnson joined Spurs from Nottingham Forest in the summer of 2023 for a transfer fee of £47.5 million and has scored 27 goals for the club in total.
