Vincent Janssen has been heavily linked with Tottenham Hotspur in recent weeks.
Reported Tottenham Hotspur target Vincent Janssen has been quoted in the London Evening Standard suggesting that he would not rule out a move to England.
Spurs are said to be on the verge of completing a deal for the AZ Alkmaar front man (Daily Mirror), who is said to be valued £12 million.
According to reports, Mauricio Pochettino has made Janssen one of his top targets, as he seeks cover for Harry Kane during he summer transfer window.
The 21-year-old is one of the most sought after young strikers in Europe, and Janssen admits that he is keen to make a step up from AZ Alkmaar.
“I want to make a step, that is clear. But there is no white smoke just now,” Janssen said.
“England? We will see. Maybe something will happen in the holidays. I will take my phone with me anyway.”
Kane is currently the only recognised striker in Tottenham’s senior squad.
The 22-year-old managed to stay fit for the entirety of last season, and he did not seem to suffer with fatigue, but Spurs still suffered from not having a secondary striker in some matches.
Janssen netted 30 goals in 43 matches last campaign for club and country, and he developed a reputation as one of the most exciting talents in the Eredivisie.
Janssen is one of a number of players who have already been linked with Tottenham this summer, with the North London side set to offer Pochettino a big transfer budget to bolster his squad.
