Tottenham Hotspur attacker Brennan Johnson has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.

The 24-year-old has struggled for regular opportunities at the North London club, and he has not been at his best.

Johnson needs a fresh start

The former Nottingham Forest attacker is quite inconsistent, and he will need to improve if he wants to compete at the highest level.

According to the former Everton CEO, Keith Wyness, the player could secure a move away from the North London club very soon. Crystal Palace are reportedly interested in the player, and they are one of the front-runners to get the deal done. They need more quality on the flanks, and the 24-year-old would be the ideal acquisition. He has extensive Premier League experience, and he will be desperate to get back to his best. His hunger to succeed will be a bonus for the Eagles.

Brenna Johnson to Palace?

Keith Wyness told Football Insider: “Yeah, I think Palace is a real option for him, and I think the one that’s making all the positive noise is Ipswich because they’ve had a real good run recently back up into the promotion places, at least the playoffs, in the Championship.

“So yes, I think Brendan Johnson could be for Palace. I think he’s a talent. He’s been a little bit inconsistent at Spurs. But you know he’ll be looking as well as whether Glasner will be there or not. So that could make a decision for him as well.

“But certainly I think Palace. I also heard Brentford, but I do think that Palace and Ipswich are the two front-runners. I expect him to move fairly soon.”

Meanwhile, Tottenham need more quality and depth on the flanks. If the Welsh International decides to leave the club in January, they must replace him properly. They have been linked with multiple players over the last few weeks, and it remains to be seen who they end up with.
