Janssen is delighted with how Fenerbahce fans have taken to him, and is feeling the love.

He told Turkish outlet Fanatik: “It feels so good, you want to fight for the club and the fans when you get to the pitch, I always try to show this battle.

“Every player playing in this team is very important, every footballer is very important for the team, you have seen, everyone can score a goal for this team. If we fight together we can have a good day.”

He may not be scoring in Turkey at present, but he appears to be thoroughly enjoying the experience.
