Tottenham Transfer News: Spurs want the 21-year-old Nottingham Forest player
Tottenham Transfer News: Football Insider reports that Spurs are keeping tabs on 21-year-old phenomenon Brennan Johnson. Spurs are interested in signing the Nottingham Forest attacker for the next season after being pleased by his play.
The 21-year-old scored in the Tricky Trees’ 1-1 Premier League match with Wolves on Saturday, and senior scouts from the London club were in attendance to see it. The Welsh international played quite well. The scouts at Tottenham Hotspur reportedly think he would be a fantastic addition to the team.
Johnson, meantime, has worked his way through the ranks at Nottingham Forest and is now a key member of the club’s first squad. The 21-year-old’s debut season in the Premier League has been nothing short of spectacular. In 34 games in all competitions, the Welsh striker has 10 goals and two assists.
Ten of his 12 goals have come in the Premier League, where they have been important in keeping the promoted team from relegation. They have played 28 games and have 27 points, enough for 14th in the league. They are now four spots above the danger zone, but that advantage is so slim that it may go in a heartbeat.
Several teams have taken notice of the Welsh international because of his play. Spurs, though, are among the quickest to respond, since they have already begun scouting the 21-year-old. They plan to make a concerted effort to sign him this summer.
