Ten years ago Gareth Bale, today Brennan Johnson - a Welsh talent in Tottenham for 55,000,000

Midnight bomb in North London! On the last day of the transfer window, Tottenham presented a long-awaited reinforcement in the attack, also the most expensive this summer. The shirt of the London club before the closing of the football market was lifted by Brennan Johnson.

According to the island's media, Tottenham will pay Nottingham Forest about 55,000,000 euros for his services, including bonuses, which will fulfill the biggest wish of new coach Ange Postecoglou, while the Welshman signed a six-year contract with the club.

Johnson was the primary target of the Australian strategist, all summer Tottenham tried to bring him, but Forest tried to cool the suitors off with an exorbitant price. It didn't work out, because even though the Spurs turned to Nigerian Gift Orban at one point, explored the field for several more attackers along the way, they never forgot about Johnson and a few hours before the closing of the market, they finally got hold of him.

But it cost them. Tottenham spent more money only on three footballers in the club's history: Tanguy Ndombele, Richarlison and Christian Romero. They will immediately shell out 45,000,000 euros for Johnson, and in case the Welshman fulfills the bonuses, he will also overtake the Argentinian sweeper on the list of the club's most expensive reinforcements.

For those who do not closely follow the events in the Premier League, he may not be so well known, some will say that he is definitely not worth that much, but on the Island, Johnson is highly regarded. What's more, he is seen in Wales as the next big thing in football there. He is 22 years old, plays in several positions in attack. Among other things, also as a central attacker, although he is best behind the striker. Three seasons ago he scored ten and set up another 12 goals while playing in the third division for Lincoln, two years ago he led Nottingham Forest into the Premier League with 16 goals and nine assists, and last season he kept him in the elite with eight goals and three assists.

In the meantime, he made his debut for the senior national team and has already made 19 appearances. True, and only two goals, although he often came off the bench and the best is still expected from him in the years to come since Gareth Bale retired, the Welshman who ten years ago earned the epithet of one of the best in the world precisely in the Tottenham shirt and with signed for Real Madrid in 2013 with such a reputation.

Brennan still has a long way to go, but not an easy task either, because Harry Kane, the best scorer in the club's history, left the team this summer, and as Richarlison scored one goal in 30 league games in Tottenham's jersey, expectations from Johnson will be high.
