Brennan Johnson: Tottenham agree deal worth £45m plus add-ons for Nottingham Forest forward

Spurs will pay £45m plus add-ons for Brennan Johnson; forward will undergo medical in London before sealing move ahead of Friday’s 11pm deadline; Spurs and Nottingham Forest must still finalise structure of payments before move can be finalised

Tottenham have agreed a fee with Nottingham Forest for Brennan Johnson.

The forward is now travelling to London for a medical before sealing the move before Friday’s 11pm deadline.

Spurs will pay in excess of £45m for Johnson, although further discussions with Forest are required over the structure of the payments.

Forest are now ready to progress a deal for PSV midfielder Ibrahima Sangare, who is in London and can undergo a medical from the capital.

Forest needed the money raised from the sale of Johnson in order to progress their move for Sangare while still complying with Financial Fair Play regulations.

Forest were not keen to sell Johnson and held out for an offer worth in the region of their £50m asking price.

The East Midlanders are set to replace Johnson with Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi.
