European giants consider summer move for Tottenham striker Vincent Janssen

Wolfsburg and Galatasaray are both interested in a move for Tottenham’s Vincent Janssen, according to the Evening Standard.

Per the source, the European giants are pondering a summer bid for the Netherlands international.

Janssen has struggled at the north London based club since making an £18 million move from AZ Alkmaar last summer.

The 22-year-old striker is yet to score a goal for Tottenham from open play this season.

The report goes onto state that both Galatasaray and Wolfsburg tried to sign Janssen over the January transfer window.

A source close to Galatasaray also revealed to Turkish-Football.com that the Istanbul giants had made a late move for Janssen in January.

However, Spurs blocked the move due to a lack of depth in forward positions.

Galatasaray wanted to sign Janssen on a six-month loan deal with an option to sign him on a permanent deal at the end of the season.

Janssen’s agent Louis Laros told Turkish-Football that his client will remain at Tottenham.

“Janssen wants to stay at Tottenham until the end of the season and Pochettino has faith in him,” Laros said.

Tottenham are currently involved in the title race and are second in the Premier League table, nine points behind leaders Chelsea.
