Tottenham outcast Vincent Janssen completes season-long loan move to Turkish Super Lig side Fenerbahce
- Holland forward Vincent Janssen has brought his time at Tottenham to an end
- The 23-year-old has joined Super Lig side Fenerbahce on a season-long loan
- Janssen scored just six times in 38 appearances for Mauricio Pochettino's side
Tottenham striker Vincent Janssen has completed a loan switch to Fenerbahce.
Janssen, a Holland international, arrived at Ataturk International airport early Friday afternoon and underwent a medical before agreeing a season-long switch.
The Super Lig outfit, who failed in a bid to bring Diego Costa on loan, will pay a fee for the short-term deal, allowing Janssen to bring the curtain down on a nightmare spell in north London.

Janssen was left out of Tottenham's Champions League squad after Spurs signed Spain forward Fernando Llorente from Swansea on deadline day.
The 23-year-old has scored only six goals in 38 appearances following an £18.5million deal with AZ Alkmaar in 2016.
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino insisted on Thursday that Janssen had a future with the club.
'Yes of course [he has a future],' said Pochettino. 'The next question is why he is not in Champions League squad. That is about numbers.
'We only have 17 places [with eight home-grown players required in the selection]. We are 19, so him and [Erik] Lamela we decided [to leave out].

Janssen could link up with another striker who struggled at Tottenham in Roberto Soldado
'But in January we check again to see if we change the names in the squad. But, yes, he has a future like other players here.'
A move to Fenerbahce would see Janssen link up with another Tottenham flop, Roberto Soldado.
He could also play alongside former Arsenal and Manchester United striker Robin van Persie.
