GOODNESS: Ange Postecoglou confirms £120m Tottenham player we be playing against Liverpool

Tottenham face Liverpool this weekend in a game that should be an absolute cracker.

There will be tons of offensive talent on show on Saturday in north London, but, sadly, one of Spurs’ most exciting forward talents will be missing from the game.

 

Indeed, as confirmed by Ange Postecoglou in a video posted on Tottenham’s social media, Brennan Johnson will miss out against Liverpool this weekend.

Johnson won’t play against Liverpool

Postecoglou shared a disappointing update on the Welshman.

 

“Brennan will miss out this week, it’s nothing too serious but enough to keep him out this week,” Postecoglou said.

 

Shame

It’s a massive shame that Johnson will miss this game.

 

The winger could’ve had a field day down that left flank against Joe Gomez or Trent Alexander-Arnold, who, with all due respect, haven’t been in the best defensive form as of late.

 

It’s not all that surprising to hear that Johnson will be out though. After all, on the Gold and Guest Talk Tottenham Podcast, Alasdair Gold stated that the £50m man had a scan on his hamstring earlier this week, so it would appear that is the issue that is keeping him out.

 

“The same with Brennan Johnson. He had a precautionary scan in the middle of this week to check how things are doing. From what I understand it was very much precautionary. Hopefully with him it was just a tight hamstring, whether they don’t take the risk and start him, maybe they put him on the bench, but I would love to see him in full flight going at that Liverpool defence, especially at home,” Gold said.

 

Of course, hamstring issues can be rather tricky and can take a while to recover from, especially if you’re a player who relies on pace, but, luckily, as Postecoglou says, it looks as though this situation isn’t too serious, and he should be back for next week’s game against Luton Town.

 

Let’s hope that Johnson can come back stronger than ever, because he was really starting to click into gear for Tottenham before this injury.

Report: Spurs are willing to pay more than £35m for central defender

Fichajes have claimed that Tottenham Hotspur now have their sights set on Juventus defender Gleison Bremer as a January transfer target.

 

Tottenham are certainly short of numbers in central defence, with Eric Dier being the only senior centre-back that Ange Postecoglou could turn to if there is an injury to either Crisitan Romero or Micky van de Ven.

 

So, it does not come as a surprise that Fichajes are now suggesting that the Premier League side are prioritising signing a top central defender when the transfer window reopens.

Tottenham are willing to move for Bremer in January

The report states that the Lilywhites want to acquire Bremer’s services in January and are willing to spend more than €40m (£34.7m) on the Brazilian.

 

The outlet explains that even though the 26-year-old has been a mainstay of Massimiliano Allegris backline and has emerged as one of the leaders at Juve, he could be tempted by the opportunity to ‘try his luck in the Premier League’.

 

However, Fichajes add that Spurs are not the only English side to be eyeing Bremer, with the defender also said to be on the radars of some of their rivals.

 

It is suggested that although Tottenham want to ‘close’ the deal ‘as soon as possible’, the former Torino’s star price could shoot up if a bidding war ensues.

 

Spurs Web Opinion

 

There is absolutely no chance that Juve would be willing to sell Bremer for as low a fee as £35m. With the centre-back being contracted until 2027 at the Allianz Stadium, he is likely to cost a minimum of £50m in January, and potentially a lot more if other Premier League sides enter the race.
