"Bournemouth have identified Tottenham's Brennan Johnson as a potential replacement for Antoine Semenyo, who is primed to join Manchester City in a deal worth 65m. City are accelerating talks with Semenyo's camp and are at the front of the queue to trigger the Ghana winger's release clause, inserted last summer when Semenyo extended his contract at Bournemouth. City are the only club to push ahead with a move for the 25-year-old, but rival clubs retain an interest in the player."
"Crystal Palace are also admirers of Johnson and Spurs are thought to be open to doing business on a player they signed from Nottingham Forest for 47.5m a little more than two years ago. It is unclear whether Spurs would rather sell or loan the Wales international. Johnson has struggled for game time under Thomas Frank this season and has started one of Tottenham's past seven matches."
Bournemouth have targeted Tottenham's Brennan Johnson as a replacement for Antoine Semenyo, who is poised to join Manchester City for about £65m. Manchester City are accelerating talks to trigger Semenyo's release clause from last summer after his contract extension, and are the only club advancing a move, though rivals remain interested. Bristol City are due 20% of any profit after Bournemouth bought Semenyo for £10m in 2023. Crystal Palace admire Johnson and Spurs may be open to selling or loaning the player. Johnson has struggled for minutes under Thomas Frank, starting one of Tottenham's past seven matches despite being last season's top scorer and Europa League final match-winner.
