Gala have reportedly been interested in Spurs striker Janssen since the summer.

Turkish outlet A Spor have claimed that Tottenham Hotspur outcast Vincent Janssen has gone to extreme lengths to engineer a move to SuperLig side Galatasaray this month.

The 24-year-old has finally returned to action after overcoming a foot injury that he suffered while on loan with Galatasaray’s rivals Fenerbahce. He has since made two appearances for Spurs’ reserve side.

He managed 45 minutes against Liverpool’s second string last Monday, before scoring in his second game back on Sunday in a 1-1 draw with London rivals West Ham United.

But his future at Spurs remains in doubt. The Netherlands international was left out of Spurs’ 25-man Premier League squad due to the injury and although he can be re-registered this month, it is unclear if he will.

Gala have long been interested in signing the former AZ Alkmaar powerhouse, with Turkish website Fotospor claiming in October that they had changed their target from Liverpool’s Divock Origi to Janssen.

Now, it appears that Janssen has edged closer to a move back to Turkey with Gala, after A Spor claim Janssen himself has sent Galatasaray a copy of his medical records in a bid to engineer a move.

It is believed that Janssen has been offered to Galatasaray and Janssen is seemingly keen on a move, sending over his medical records to help the deal. He is likely to have little future at Spurs, after managing just six goals in 39 games.
