Crystal Palace Eyes Brennan Johnson in January
Crystal Palace is poised for an impressive season and aims to bolster its squad in January with the addition of a new winger. Oliver Glasner has expressed interest in bringing in Brennan Johnson from Tottenham Hotspur.
Johnson appears to be available for transfer as he does not fit into Thomas Frank’s plans at Spurs. Keith Wyness has indicated that Crystal Palace is currently the frontrunner for Johnson’s signature over other clubs like Ipswich and Brentford.
“I believe Palace is a viable option for him. Ipswich has been making significant strides lately, moving up into playoff contention in the Championship. That makes them a strong competitor,” Wyness stated.
“Johnson is a talented player, though he’s shown some inconsistency at Spurs. However, he’s likely considering whether Glasner will remain in charge, as that could influence his decision.”
“Kieran McKenna seems committed at Ipswich, and it will be interesting to see how things progress. As a young talent, Johnson seems to be a confident striker who benefits from support around him, making his choice crucial.” Wyness added. “For now, it appears that Palace and Ipswich are leading the race, and I anticipate he will make a decision soon.”
Should Crystal Palace Pursue Brennan Johnson?
There is no doubt that Crystal Palace is in need of additional winger options, and Brennan Johnson stands out as a promising choice. The key question now is whether a transfer agreement can be reached with Tottenham.
