Fabrizio Romano is reporting on Twitter this morning that Tottenham Hotspur have held positive talks with Brennan Johnson over a potential move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer transfer window.
For Tottenham Hotspur supporters, exciting Brennan Johnson news
According to the Italian writer, Tottenham has already had “positive talks” with Johnson’s team and is currently negotiating a deal with Forest.
Romano has added that although the 22-year-old Welsh forward was initially a target for Brentford, the Bees have since ended negotiations.
Johnson appears to be on the verge of being acquired by Tottenham right now.
If the player wants to join Spurs and Forest is prepared to trade for him, it won’t take long for the two teams to come to an agreement.
Rumor has it that Forest is seeking £50 million in transfer fees in return for the attacker.
Spurs’ willingness to pay that sum is in doubt.
Johnson, a promising young athlete who is already well-liked, will continue to advance throughout the years.
Former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey described his fellow countryman as a “very dangerous” player who is “very rapid” and “poses a threat in behind” in a June 2023 article written by NottinghamshireLive.
Johnson has participated in 41 Premier League games so far.
The Wales forward participated in eight goals and three assists during those games.
Tottenham’s main objective for the current campaign is to finish in the top four of the Premier League standings, whereas Forest’s is to avoid being relegated to the Championship.

Tottenham have just received £7.7m bid for ‘amazing’ player, he’s played for Ange Postecoglou this season
Ange Postecoglou, the manager of Tottenham, appears to have decided who will be a key player this season and who won’t.
Several players need to leave Tottenham before the transfer window shuts since the team is now too crowded.
Several players haven’t participated in a single minute of competitive football this year.
While Manchester United has expressed interest in Sergio Reguilon, Japhet Tanganga and Eric Dier may also move on.
Davinson Sanchez is another player who might leave Tottenham this summer, and they have received a bid from Stade Rennais.
When Cristian Romero was injured on the first day of the season, Postecoglou turned to Sanchez.
It appears, though, that the ‘outstanding’ defender might be let to depart in the closing days of the transfer window.
Tottenham receive bid for Sanchez
According to the L’Equipe report, Rennes has made an offer of £7.7 million for Sanchez.
Although Spurs haven’t yet commented, they apparently want up to £12.9 million to release the 27-year-old.
He has one year left on his contract, and Rennes could be able to persuade Tottenham to sell for as little as £8.5 million, so the two teams’ values aren’t that dissimilar.
Rennes has recently conducted business with Spurs, and they might believe that will help them close a decent deal.
Joe Rodon, a Welsh international who played 22 times for the French team, was acquired by them on loan last summer.
They then added Djed Spence in January as he was looking for first-team time, and he made the team before getting hurt.
The decision by Tottenham to accept a proposal for Sanchez without bringing in a replacement will be interesting to watch.
Although Postecoglou would prefer to add another defender, he is aware that he must change some of his present alternatives first.
