Vincent Janssen exiled from Spurs squad by Pochettino

Tottenham Hotspur striker Vincent Janssen has been exiled from the first team squad by manager Mauricio Pochettino, according to reports from the Netherlands.

Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf are claiming that Janssen refused to go out on loan this summer and is waiting for the January transfer window for a permanent move out of the club. The Netherlands international scored just two goals in the Premier League last season following his move from Eredivisie side AZ Alkmaar.

“Tottenham have concluded after just over a year that Janssen, who scored only twice in the league, is not fit for the absolute top,” read the report on De Telegraaf.
