Brentford have upped their offer for Nottingham Forest's Brennan Johnson, amid an expected move from Newcastle United.
The 20-year-old attacking midfielder has become one of the most pursued young players in the Championship, and sparkled in Forest's push for promotion. Johnson has six goals in 28 league games, and the feeling is naturally that he is more than ready for the Premier League, and can prove a difference in a relegation battle.
