Brennan Johnson has been on fire for Tottenham, scoring in six consecutive matches across all competitions and leading Spurs to five victories. Remarkably, this achievement makes him the first player to do so since Harry Kane in 2019. What makes Johnson’s feat even more impressive is that he’s only 23 and has played just 44 games for the club, yet he’s already matched a record that Kane managed only once in his 435 appearances for Spurs.
The achievement comes after Johnson faced a wave of online abuse from some supporters, which prompted him to delete his social media accounts. However, the winger has responded in the best way possible—by becoming a key player for Tottenham. Former Spurs goalkeeper Paul Robinson commented on Johnson’s growing influence, saying, “He looks dangerous every time he gets the ball. Kane did it once in his long Spurs career, so for Johnson to match that so early is remarkable.”
While Tottenham fans may be disappointed by the recent 3-2 loss to Brighton, Johnson’s form offers a major silver lining. Though no one is comparing him to a Spurs legend like Kane, the young winger is showing he has the potential to be a star in his own right.
