Vincent Janssen has struggled to make an impact at Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has told Football.London that Vincent Janssen has a future at the club.

Janssen has been on the books of Tottenham since the summer of 2016 when he joined from AZ for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £17 million.

According to Transfermarkt.co.uk, the Netherlands international striker has a contract at Spurs until the summer of 2020.

The 24-year-old has been a peripheral figure at Tottenham and had a loan spell at Turkish club Fenerbahce last season.

Tottenham manager Pochettino has suggested that Janssen has a future at the North London outfit.

Pochettino told Football.London when asked if Janssen has a future at Tottenham: “Why not? I accept people can make mistakes and giving second chances is an important thing.”

Future at Tottenham Hotspur?

Janssen is a good striker, but the Netherlands has failed to make a huge impact at Tottenham so far.

It is hard to see the 24-year-old play regularly for Spurs once Harry Kane is fully fit and back in form, and it does make sense for the Dutchman to find a new club in the summer transfer window where he can play regularly and can regain the kind of form he showed at AZ.
