"Crystal Palace are on the verge of signing Tottenham winger Brennan Johnson for £35 million after the Wales international agreed to the move on Thursday, with final medical checks set to take place on Friday. The 24-year-old is set to be named in Palace's squad for their trip to Newcastle on Sunday (15:00 GMT) in a deal that would add attacking depth to Oliver Glasner's squad as the Eagles balance their domestic campaign with playing in the Conference League."
"The fee would represent the fourth-largest sale in Tottenham's history, behind Gareth Bale, Harry Kane and Kyle Walker. Johnson ended 2024/25 as Tottenham's leading scorer with 18 goals in 51 appearances across all competitions, but his role had diminished since Thomas Frank's appointment as manager in June, starting six of Spurs' 17 league games this season. Tottenham's attacking options have increased, particularly following the arrival of Mohammed Kudus, who has largely displaced Johnson on the right wing."
Crystal Palace have agreed a £35 million deal to sign Tottenham winger Brennan Johnson, with medical checks scheduled for Friday and possible inclusion in the squad for Sunday's trip to Newcastle. The 24-year-old would add attacking depth to Oliver Glasner's side as Palace balance domestic fixtures with Conference League commitments. The fee would be Tottenham's fourth-largest sale behind Gareth Bale, Harry Kane and Kyle Walker. Johnson finished 2024/25 as Tottenham's top scorer with 18 goals in 51 appearances but has started only six of Spurs' 17 league matches this season after Thomas Frank became manager. Competition from Mohammed Kudus and Dejan Kulusevski has reduced his role. He joined Spurs from Nottingham Forest in September 2023 for £47.5m.
