Tottenham Hotspur have made an ambitious offer to sign a highly rated teenage forward as Ange Postecoglou prepares for life without Harry Kane.
Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing a highly regarded young Premier League forward to replace Harry Kane.
Kane left the Lilywhites on Friday for Bayern Munich, making his debut the next day in the DFL-Supercup loss to RB Leipzig. Tottenham, meanwhile, started the season with a 2-2 draw against Brentford, which will give fans hope after a difficult few days.
Spurs now have an advantage over the Bees in the transfer market, as they attempt to recruit a sought-after forward to lead their line in the future.
Brennan Johnson is a target for Ange Postecoglou, according to the Daily Mail, with the Welsh international desired by a number of Premier League clubs.
Brentford reportedly had a record £40 million proposal turned down, but Tottenham have a plan in the works as they try to reinforce their assault in the coming weeks.
Spurs are apparently willing to offer Joe Rodon and Djed Spence to the Garibaldi, who are both surplus to requirements in north London. Both players were considered bit parts by Antonio Conte and were loaned out to Ligue 1 last season.
Forest may be interested in Spence in particular. While on loan from Middlesbrough, the teenage full-back was a key member of the side that won promotion through the play-offs last May, eventually swapping the City Ground for a major move to the capital.
Steve Cooper, on the other hand, has stated that he is not concerned about the speculation tying his star forward to a move away from the club.
Transfermarkt values Johnson at roughly €38 million.
