Vincent Janssen

Vincent Janssen attacks space and pins centre-backs, using his height to lead the line. Vincent Janssen began at AZ Alkmaar, moved to Tottenham, then Monterrey and Antwerp, shaping a varied club trail. He thrives on intelligent runs and short touches to link play. A turning point came when he shifted from pure finisher to a deeper forward who holds up and tees teammates. In Antwerp he combines hold-up with progressive passing and high-pressure forays. He attacks the back post and creates separation with late runs behind the line. World Cup experience with the Netherlands informs his on-pitch decision-making in front of goal.
