'Give me 12 months to succeed in the Premier League' - Janssen not giving up at Tottenham

Being dropped from Mauricio Pochettino's squad and January interest from Galatasaray has not hit Vincent Janssen's will to succeed at Spurs.

Vincent Janssen is refusing to give up on becoming a success at Tottenham Hotspur, stating he will wait until the end of his first year before he judges his progress in the Premier League.

The Netherlands international joined Spurs from AZ during the close season for £17 million – after scoring 27 goals in 34 Eredivisie games in just one season for the Dutch side, having joined from second tier club Almere City.

Janssen has failed to replicate such form at White Hart Lane, with four in 27 appearances all coming from the penalty spot, while finding first-team opportunities increasingly hard to come by.
