Brennan Johnson joins Everton after Crystal Palace switch

Wales international Brennan Johnson has signed a four-year contract with Everton, arriving from Crystal Palace in a player swap that included Dwight McNeil moving to Selhurst Park. Former footballer Lee Trundle believes Johnson will succeed at Everton under manager David Moyes, particularly in a central attacking role. Johnson's diverse playing history includes stints at Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest, where he was part of the squad that won the Europa League. Expectations will be high for Johnson, who is facing pressure to perform quickly at a club with a long trophy drought.
