The wing positions are an area where Glasner lacks depth, with only the likes of Ismaila Sarr, Yeremy Pino and Romain Esse as natural options. Crystal Palace are hoping to address this in January, and they could do so by involving Brennan Johnson.
Crystal Palace interested in signing Brennan Johnson
According to Football insiderMick Brown has confirmed Crystal Palace’s interest in Johnson, who Tottenham are willing to let go in January.
“I’m sure Tottenham will consider offers to let Brennan Johnson leave. It could be on loan, or it could be permanent, as both suit Tottenham for different reasons, so it will depend on the buying club and what they want.”
“Palace have been keeping an eye on him, he is high on their target list. So if they get the green light from Tottenham, he is someone they could be tempted to make a move for because he plays in a position where they don’t have many options. They want to strengthen, the manager has publicly asked for that, and if they want to back him they will want to do it early.”
“I think they have to be careful, because of the type of player he is, he doesn’t necessarily fit in everywhere. If they think he’s a good fit for the role they want him to play, then go for it. Because like I said, I expect Tottenham will be willing to let him go.”
Is Brennan Johnson the answer to Crystal Palace’s winger problems?
There is little doubt that Johnson would be a good addition to Crystal Palace’s squad, and if he can be loaned out, even better. However, they could struggle to win this race as Aston Villa are also interested in the Wales international.
