Premier League side Cardiff City and La Liga outfit Real Betis are reportedly interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur striker Vincent Janssen.

It has been a tough three years for Tottenham striker Vincent Janssen since he made the switch from Holland to England during the summer of 2016.

The 24-year-old, who is out of favour under Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino, has struggled to prove his goalscoring worth since joining the London outfit.

Therefore, it isn’t a surprise to hear that he could potentially be making a move away from the Champions League side on deadline day.

The Sun claim that relegation-threatened Cardiff City could potentially make a late bid for the Dutch striker as they bid to stay in the Premier League.

While Sky Sports report that La Liga outfit Real Betis are in talks with Tottenham over signing the Holland international, who according to Spotrac is earning £34k-a-week at White Hart Lane

If Janssen has a choice then the Spurs ace should choose Cardiff over Betis because it would provide him with an ideal opportunity to prove his worth on the biggest stage in club football (baring the Champions League, of course)

At Tottenham, he would have been under constant scrutiny, but considering Cardiff recently earned promotion from the Championship, less would be expected of him.

Not only that, if he were to struggle then he wouldn’t be dropped instantly, instead, he would be given time to showcase that he does have the goalscoring ability and technical ability to play in England’s top-flight.
