Vincent Janssen - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

On bench Saturday Janssen (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's encounter with Atlanta United.

Impact Janssen barely recovered from the problem that forced him to miss the previous match against Dallas, aiming to see minutes as a center-forward at some point in upcoming games. Such event would affect the role of Antony, who is currently being deployed in the No. 9 spot. The veteran forward showed his finishing quality with a hat trick in one of his two previous starts for Portland, and he's also capable of winning duels near the opposition goal.

Impact Janssen didn't train Tuesday, but the towering striker is back with the group and should be available over the weekend. Janssen has done a good job filling the void left by Felipe Mora, who joined Atletico San Luis in Liga MX earlier this year. Janssen has three goals and six shots in five appearances with the Timbers in 2026.

SEPTEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Not in training Tuesday Janssen (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in training Tuesday, according to Timbers reporter Adam Susman.

Impact Janssen missed the 2-1 loss to FC Dallas over the weekend, and his absence from training isn't ideal ahead of the match against Atlanta United over the weekend. Janssen has three goals in five appearances since signing with Portland in early August.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet performance in draw Janssen had one off-target shot and created two chances during Wednesday's 2-2 draw against St. Louis City.

Impact Janssen was coming off scoring his first three MLS goals in the previous game, but didn't come even close to replicate such performance here. It was just the second start for the forward in five games since he joined Portland midseason and people will need more time to see if that hat-trick is a teaser of what lies ahead when he gets fully fit or just an outlier.

Nets hat trick Janssen scored three goals to go with four shots (three on goal) and three chances created in Saturday's 5-4 win over Minnesota United.

Impact Janssen scored a hat trick and created three chances during Saturday's goal-bonanza against Minnesota. It was one of the highest-scoring matches you're likely to see this season and Janssen was right at the center of it. He scored all three shots he put on goal and could have had assists with better finishing around him, this was a simply sublime showing.

Clears suspension Janssen has served his one match suspension and will be an option for the clash with Minnesota on Saturday.

Impact Janssen has yet to start a match since joining Portland, making three appearance off the bench. He is set to remain a bench option, clocking in just 41 minutes of play with a shot and two tackles made.

AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off in draw Janssen received a red card as a substitute during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Los Angeles FC.

Impact Janssen was shown two yellow cards late in the game, ending up with a suspension that he'll serve in the next match against Austin. Therefore, his next chance to play will come on Sept. 5 versus Minnesota. The new signing has barely made an impact in three substitute outings for the Timbers, and his absence merely reduces the team's depth for the time being, with Kevin Kelsy benefiting in terms of playing time.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

Plays 10 minutes on debut Janssen played 10 minutes for his debut in Sunday's 3-1 Leagues Cup loss to Club America, according to the club.

Impact Janssen had been waiting on his P-1 visa to be approved, a procedural delay that had kept him out of Portland's earlier match against Seattle. His debut now confirms the paperwork has been finalized, and he brings significant experience with 165 goals and 61 assists across 454 professional appearances as he begins adding depth to the attack following Felipe Mora's departure to Atletico San Luis.

Impact Janssen recently completed a permanent transfer to Portland on a two year deal after a four year stint at Royal Antwerp, bringing significant experience with 165 goals and 61 assists across 454 professional appearances. His visa delay is a procedural hurdle rather than a fitness concern, and he is expected to make his Timbers debut once the paperwork is finalized, adding depth to the attack following the departure of Felipe Mora to Atletico San Luis.
