According to Milliyet, Fenerbahce are unlikely to offer on-loan Tottenham Hotspur forward Vincent Janssen a permanent move at the end of the season.

What's the story?

Janssen joined Fenerbahce on loan from Tottenham back in September, with the Netherlands international due to spend the remainder of the 2017-18 campaign in Turkey.

The striker managed two goals and four assists in his first 11 league appearances for Fenerbahce, but he has been on the sidelines for the last two months with a toe problem.

It is understood that Spurs were hopeful of Fenerbahce signing the 23-year-old on a permanent deal in the summer, but according to Milliyet, the Turkish giants are shying away from a move due to the Dutchman's injury problems.

As a result, Janssen is expected to return to Tottenham at the end of the season, but it seems that the striker is not in the plans of Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Does Janssen have a Tottenham future?

There was a lot of excitement amongst Tottenham supporters when the club paid £17m to sign Janssen from AZ in the summer of 2016.

Indeed, the striker, who is valued at £9m by transfermarkt.co.uk, moved to England off the back of a 31-goal season with his Dutch club, and having also impressed for the Netherlands national team.

Janssen only scored two Premier League goals during the 2016-17 season, however, as he struggled to come to terms with the pace of English football.

The forward then made one league appearance earlier this term before joining Fenerbahce once Fernando Llorente had made the switch to Spurs as back-up for Harry Kane.

Fenerbahce now seem unlikely to take up their permanent option on Janssen, and the 23-year-old will still have two years left to run on his Tottenham contract this summer.

Spurs will still hope to sell to another party, but much will depend on whether Janssen can get himself back on the field before the end of the 2017-18 campaign.
