Tottenham Hotspur has intensified its pursuit of Bayern Munich’s Mathys Tel, with the Premier League club now engaging in direct talks with the player’s agents. According to renowned journalist Florian Plettenberg, Tottenham is “definitely very interested” in securing Tel’s signature, and the negotiations mark a significant development in the transfer saga.
The French forward has been consistently linked with a move away from Bayern Munich throughout the month, but it seemed likely that he would remain with the German giants.
However, the situation took a dramatic turn in recent days, with reports emerging that Tel had informed Bayern of his desire to leave the club before the transfer window closes.
Tottenham has long been admirers of Tel’s talent, and the club has regularly been linked with a move for the player whenever his future at Bayern has been uncertain.
Plettenberg’s latest update suggests that Tottenham is firmly in the running to sign Tel, and the club’s decision to initiate direct talks with his representatives underscores its determination to secure his signature.
While Tottenham’s interest in Tel is undeniable, the club still faces stiff competition for the player’s services. Tel has yet to make a decision on his future, and Plettenberg describes the situation as an “open race” for the player’s signature. This means that Tottenham will need to persuade Tel that a move to North London is in his best interests, while also negotiating a transfer fee with Bayern.
The news of Tottenham’s pursuit of Tel comes as the club is also exploring other transfer options. Reports have emerged that Tottenham has opened talks with Brentford over a potential deal for Yoane Wissa, suggesting that the club is actively working on multiple signings as the transfer window enters its final stages.
As the situation unfolds, Tottenham fans will be eagerly awaiting any developments on the Tel transfer saga. With the club’s interest in the player now firmly established, the focus will shift to whether Tottenham can convince Tel to join the club and whether a deal can be agreed with Bayern.
