Mauricio Pochettino comments on Vincent Janssen’s Tottenham Hotspur future

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has delivered words of comfort to Vincent Janssen, and it is now up to the player to prove his point.

Janssen joined Spurs last season from Eredivise side AZ Alkmaar for a fee in the region of £17 million, but has failed to make a strong impact at the north London club.

The Dutch international has scored only two Premier League goals last season in 24 appearances, although most of them have come from the bench.

The Mirror reported earlier this week that Janssen has no future at the club, and Pochettino no longer deems the 23-year-old Dutchman an able deputy for Harry Kane.
