Best Alternatives to Vincent Janssen

Playing Style Analysis

Janssen has spent a career defying the expectations that come with being a big-money Spurs flop, quietly rebuilding himself into a reliable, physical presence who wins games through graft rather than glamour. Operating in the Belgian Pro League, his 0.27 goals per 90 and 0.19 assists per 90 both sit above the positional average—modest numbers that actually represent consistent output for a striker who isn't the focal point of a top-tier system. His aerial and duel win rates outperform league peers, painting a picture of a forward who competes hard and holds the line. The three closest DNA matches to Vincent Janssen:
