Mathys Tel, who has been on loan at Tottenham Hotspur for a while, is very close to a permanent move to the English club. After lengthy negotiations with Bayern Munich, both clubs are in the process of finalizing a deal worth around €35 million.
The young French striker, only 20 years old, has shown during his loan spell that he has the quality and potential to play a central role in Tottenham’s attack. The London side, who have been missing an attacking leader since Harry Kane’s departure, have high hopes that Tel can fill this void.

Tottenham’s sporting management believes the striker will be a mainstay of the club’s project in the coming seasons, with the aim of fighting at the top of the table and challenging for titles. The investment of around €35 million underlines the club’s belief in the young French talent.
Now all that remains is to formalize the deal, so that Tel can continue his development in the team and establish himself as the new cornerstone Tottenham need to continue to dream big.
