Tottenham might be willing to pay more than £35 million to bring in a’magnificent’ star.

Tottenham Hotspur are allegedly prepared to pay more than £35 million this summer to get Nottingham Forest attacker Brennan Johnson.

According to The Daily Mail, Johnson has surfaced as a target for Tottenham in the event that Harry Kane goes.
Tottenham have a vital few weeks ahead of them as they attempt to fix key elements of Ange Postecoglou‘s team.

Spurs are in severe need of defensive reinforcements, but have failed to sign a centre-back for Ange Postecoglou.

The North Londoners must also cut a bloated roster, as star striker Harry Kane is linked with a transfer to Bayern Munich.

Tottenham are apparently looking for a faster profile of attacker if Kane leaves for Munich.

Moreover, despite Forest’s valuation of Brennan Johnson at roughly £50 million, Spurs are prepared to outbid Brentford‘s offer of £35 million with add-ons.

Tottenham might spend more than £35 million for Johnson.
According to the Mail, if Kane is traded this summer, Spurs will investigate a move for Johnson.

Steve Cooper is desperate to maintain hold of the Welshman, but Forest must be’realistic’ owing to FFP.

Forest have previously turned off a £35 million approach from Brentford for Johnson, and the attacker is valued at roughly £50 million.

While Spurs are unlikely to match his asking price, they may hunt for a’middle ground’ to sign a faster forward.

Johnson has been a standout for Forest in recent years, playing a major role in the club’s return to the Premier League.

The 22-year-old also excelled in his first season in England’s top division, scoring 13 goals in all competitions.

Johnson, hailed as a’magnificent’ talent, appears to have a bright future ahead of him and has piqued the curiosity of Aston Villa.

While Johnson is an excellent talent, Tottenham would be foolish to sign him as a substitute for Kane.

The Wales international has demonstrated his ability to play in the center, but he has been most efficient off the right side. It also appears doubtful that he would replace Dejan Kulusevski in Postecoglou‘s starting lineup.
