La Liga outfit Real Betis reportedly join the likes of Sevilla and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the race for £15m-rated Tottenham Hotspur outcast Vincent Janssen.

Spanish side Real Betis have reportedly joined the race to sign Tottenham Hotspur outcast Vincent Janssen.

Janssen has been told by manager Mauricio Pochettino that he has no future at the club, and Spurs are eager to get him off their books on a permanent basis before Thursday's transfer deadline.

The likes of Sevilla and Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with a move for the striker, while there is also understood to be interest from China.

Sky Sports News now reports that Real Betis are also interested in the Dutchman, who is valued at around £15m by Spurs.

Tottenham signed Janssen for £18.6m in 2016, but he has made just one appearance for the club since the end of his debut campaign in 2016-17.

The 24-year-old has remained surplus to requirements at Spurs even when Harry Kane and Son Heung-min have been unavailable in recent weeks, with 20-year-old Kazaiah Sterling chosen ahead of him for a place on the bench during Sunday's FA Cup clash with Crystal Palace.
