Tottenham Hotspur are looking to sign Brennan Johnson from Nottingham Forest this summer.
According to Ben Jacobs, Spurs are exploring a move to sign the 22-year-old winger who is keen on joining the London club.
Apparently, Nottingham Forest value the player close to £55 million and it remains to be seen whether Spurs are prepared to pay that kind of money for him.
Apparently, the north London outfit could look to explore a cash-plus-player offer to sign the Welshman.
Tottenham Hotspur defender Davinson Sanchez could be included in a deal to sign the 10-goal attacker this summer.
Jacobs claims that the deal to sign Johnson will not be an easy deal to pull off but Tottenham are ‘expected to try’.
Spurs are exploring a move for Brennan Johnson, who is keen on a move. Forest value Johnson at over £50m (perhaps even closer to £55m). Tottenham may explore a cash-plus-player offer with Davinson Sanchez discussed.

It is no surprise the Spurs are looking to bring in attacking reinforcements, especially after the departure of Harry Kane.
The England international joined Bayern Munich earlier this summer and Spurs will have to replace his goal-scoring and creative output.
Johnson has the potential to develop into a top-class Premier League attacker and he could prove to be a solid, long-term investment for the London outfit.
A report from London World claims that Daniel Levy might be prepared to sanction a move for the 22-year-old now.
The Nottingham Forest winger scored 10 goals across all competitions last season and his numbers are likely to improve when he’s playing alongside better players at a big club.
The opportunity to join Tottenham will be an exciting option for the player and he is likely to be keen on the move.
Spurs will be hoping to get back into the Champions League at the end of the season and signing the right players could help them finish in the top four.
