Tottenham Hotspur are reported to be ‘desperate’ to offload Vincent Janssen

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in raising money before the transfer deadline to fund their own activity, The Evening Standard report.

The report claims Spurs are ‘desperate’ to offload striker Vincent Janssen, who is not in manager Mauricio Pochettino’s plans.

Spurs have also reportedly ‘slashed’ Danny Rose’s £50 million asking price in an attempt to flush out a buyer.

So far there have been no takers, with reported suitors Manchester United happy with the combination of Ashley Young and Luke Shaw.

It is also reported that Spurs are open to offers for Georges-Kevin N’Koudou despite his impressive pre-season, along with Moussa Sissoko and Fernando Llorente.

The problem for Spurs is that clubs have not exactly been beating down their door for their unwanted players all summer, and there is not a lot of chance of that changing before the transfer deadline.

Their best option with Janssen may be to sell abroad, and they can achieve this after the deadline, but it won’t help them raise money to fund their own incomings.
