EVERTON EYE FOREST STAR BRENNAN

EVERTON are preparing a move for Nottingham Forest winger Brennan Johnson after achieving Premier League survival. Sportsmail understands the 21-year-old (below) is top of their summer wishlist, along with Burnley defender James Tarkowski. Johnson’s future depends on Forest’s fate in the Championship play-off final against Huddersfield. If they win, the Wales international will open talks over a new contract. Were Everton to win the race for free agent Tarkowski, it could see defender Michael Keane leave, with West Ham interested.
