Former top-flight star Clinton Morrison is of the view that Brennan Johnson is a perfect signing for Tottenham Hotspur and stressed that the attacker can play anywhere across the frontline.
The 22-year-old forward turned heads with his performances last season with Nottingham Forest, scoring eight goals in 38 games.
Tottenham were keen on signing Johnson this season and agreed a deal with Nottingham Forest for the attacker on transfer deadline day this summer.
Morrison is of the view that Johnson is the ideal signing for Tottenham, as he can play everywhere across the forward line.
He also pointed out that Johnson is a player with brilliant pace and added that it has been proven that the forward can also score goals.
There is much discussion about whether Tottenham should have acquired a number nine, but Morrison asserted on BBC Radio 5 live that he is the ideal acquisition for them.
“He can play anywhere on the front line, and he has pace to burn,” said the coach.
He can score goals; you have seen that for Nottingham Forest.
“I think it is good business for Nottingham Forest and great business for Tottenham.”
Now it remains to be seen whether Johnson will be able to justify his price tag in Tottenham’s colours this season.
