Vincent Janssen left Tottenham Hotspur on a season-long loan last summer.

Tottenham Hotspur dutch striker Vincent Janssen (C) is escorted by Turkish police officersupon his arrival at Ataturk International airport in Istanbul, on September 8, 2017.

Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter have wished Vincent Janssen luck ahead of his Turkish Cup final tonight.

The on-loan Spurs striker could finish the season with a winner’s medal if he helps Fenerbahce – who are three points behind top-of-the-table Galatasaray in the Super Lig with two games to go – overcome Akhisarspor in tonight’s showpiece.

The Dutchman, a £17 million signing in 2016 [The Times], left Tottenham on a season-long loan last summer after a dreadful first year in North London.

But he remains a popular figure among the Lilywhites supporters nonetheless, some of whom are hoping he does the business this evening.

Regardless of whether he returns to Tottenham with a bit of silverware this summer, it seems wholly unlikely that he has a future at Spurs.

The former AZ Alkmaar hitman has only managed three goals in 14 appearances for Fenerbahce this season.

Janssen, who scored once from open play for the Lilywhites last season, is simply nowhere near prolific enough to be Harry Kane’s deputy and his stint in Turkey is further evidence of that.
