Spurs' European final hero Brennan Johnson finds himself in an unclear situation at the club amid increasing Premier League interest in the attacker.
It is understood that Tottenham, while not actively looking to sell the Welsh international, are receptive to letting Johnson leave should they receive a acceptable bid.
The Eagles are presently the team furthest along in their pursuit for Johnson, but several clubs are believed to be keeping tabs on his status closely.
Johnson was Spurs' leading Premier League scorer the previous campaign with eleven goals, and secured his place in club history by scoring the winner in their European final triumph over Manchester United last season, ending the club's 17-year wait for a trophy.
However, the departure of Ange Postecoglou and arrival of Thomas Frank has resulted in Johnson playing more of a bit-part role in the current campaign.
The 24-year-old, has been granted only 6 top-flight starts under Frank.
Therefore, a host of clubs have been alerted to his potential availability before the January transfer window.
Given his limited game time and the looming possibility of a global tournament on the horizon with Wales, a transfer elsewhere from Tottenham could benefit Johnson in January.
Johnson joined Spurs from Nottingham Forest in a deal valued at £47.5m in the 2023 summer window and has registered twenty-seven goals in all competitions.
