    Palace reject £8m bid for Johnson

    Johnson is a target for a trio of Premiership clubs
    Crystal Palace say they have turned down an £8m offer from Premiership side Bolton for striker Andy Johnson.
    Bolton put the highest bid in for the 25-year-old who is also being chased by top-flight rivals Everton and Wigan.

    But, even though Eagles chairman Simon Jordan seems prepared to sell Johnson, he only appears willing to do so if the price matches his valuation.

    Johnson is currently with England's World Cup squad after being named as one of the stand-by players.

    Everton were interested in Johnson last summer, but he was persuaded to sign a new deal in a bid to ensure Palace made an instant return to the Premiership.

    But Palace were consigned to another season in the Championship after their loss to Watford in the semi-final of the play-offs last season and clubs have quickly moved to try to lure Johnson.

    Everton and Wigan are each believed to have tabled £7m offers for the player.

    Johnson endured a frustrating season during the past campaign with injuries limiting his outings but did manage to score 15 league goals.

    But he came to prominence after his 21 goals in the 2004/2005 Premiership season following a tally of 28 in Palace's previous promotion campaign.

    So more than 50% were penalties

    Oh he's worth 8 million alright, in fact I'd bid ten just to be certain i was getting value for money

    Thats still 21 normal goals scored in The Premiership with a team that went down.

    Easy worth 10million in Premiership pounds.
