Wales manager Robert Page says reported Leeds United target Brennan Johnson could play for a top-six Premier League team now and those clubs who wanted him in January have missed out. The Whites have been linked with a move for the Nottingham Forest forward, who heads into Sunday's Sky Bet Championship play-off final against Huddersfield on the back of a breakthrough season for club and country.
Johnson has scored 19 goals this term and was named the Championship's Young Player of the Season at the EFL awards last month. The 21-year-old was the subject of a reported £18million bid from Brentford in January, but chose to stay at his hometown club for whom his father David played for between 2001 and 2006.
Page said: "Brennan is the future of Welsh football and I think he's top-six (Premier League) now. He's shown he's got that potential and ability. I've seen it in him for a long time and it's been great to watch his development. I think that the teams showing interest in him in January have lost out now."
