Janssen still far from joining Tottenham claims AZ Sporting Director
Scorer of 27 goals in the Ererdivise last term, Janssen visited Tottenham’s training ground and met Mauricio Pochettino last month, but Spurs have failed to match the Dutch club’s economic requests for the 22-year-old striker so far.
“We received one bid from Tottenham Hotspur that we have not accepted. That’s not so strange to me. It is not often that a club agrees immediately with a first offer. Then we heard nothing more”, Mr. Huilberts has told Noordhollands Dagblad.
Our friends at Teamtalk report that Tottenham’s first offer was in the region of £ 11 million, though AZ Alkmaar want at least £ 17 million to sell the player.
After finishing last year’s Premier League campaign in third place, Tottenham will take part to the 2016-17 Champions League campaign, that’s why Mauricio Pochettino aims to add some depth to his attacking force.
