Pochettino practically ends career of Spurs player with blunt answer

Mauricio Pochettino has bluntly responded to a question regarding Vincent Janssen’s future at Tottenham Hotspur.

The question was posed to the Spurs boss during the pre-match press conference ahead of tomorrow night’s Champions League clash against PSV Eindhoven.

Janssen, who joined Spurs from another Dutch side AZ Alkmaar has failed to make the grade in England since his move and was shipped off to Fenerbahce on loan last season.

A foot injury scuppered any hope of the forward who has international 17 caps to his name departing Spurs during the summer and Pochettino has made it abundantly clear that he is not part of his plans going forward.

It remains to be seen if the 24-year-old will depart the club in the January transfer window.

Pochettino told Football.London: “I think we are going to play in the Champions League and it’s clear the situation of Vincent. I don’t think it’s a moment to talk about him. We’ve talked a lot already.”
