Tottenham Hotspur 'continue to monitor Sam Johnstone'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly in 'regular contact' with West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper Sam Johnstone over a potential move to the club this summer.

The 27-year-old is expected to leave the Hawthorns in the upcoming market, with the Baggies facing the possibility of dropping back into the Championship for the 2021-22 campaign.

Tottenham have been linked with Johnstone over the last few months, with the capital outfit said to be seeking a long-term replacement for Hugo Lloris.

According to Football Insider, Spurs continue to monitor the former Manchester United youngster and remain in contact with him ahead of a potential switch in the coming months.

The report, though, claims that Jose Mourinho's side could be forced to pay extra for the goalkeeper following his call-up to the senior England squad, which has raised his profile.

Johnstone has conceded 55 times in 28 Premier League appearances for Sam Allardyce's side during the 2020-21 campaign, keeping five clean sheets in the process.
