Mauricio Pochettino Confirms Vincent Janssen Will Be Part of Squad After Exit Talks Break Down

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that out-of-favour forward Vincent Janssen will be given a part in the side's Premier League squad for the remainder of the season.

After returning from a loan spell with Fenerbahce, Janssen was not issued a squad number for the current season. He has featured for Tottenham's development squad this season, but his last involvement with the first team came in 2017. The Dutchman was heavily linked with a move away from the club during the transfer window, but a move failed to materialise.

Speaking ahead of his side's upcoming clash with Newcastle United, Pochettino confirmed that Janssen will be given one of the free spaces in Tottenham's Premier League squad.
