Tottenham Mathys Tel transfer talks are officially underway, with Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl confirming discussions between the two clubs. Spurs remain keen on making Tel’s move permanent following his six-month loan — but only at a reduced price, below the original £50m option.
With Thomas Frank set to reshape the Spurs attack this summer, Tel is viewed as a key forward target following his development in North London.
Bayern Confirm Spurs Talks for Mathys Tel
“We’re talking to Tottenham, that’s no secret. We’ll see how that pans out.” — Max Eberl, Bayern Sporting Director
Eberl told Abendzeitung München that Bayern are actively negotiating with Spurs after Tel completed his loan spell in North London. The French striker impressed with his attitude and flashes of quality, earning the trust of the coaching staff and front office.
Tel, 19, has just returned from representing France at the U21 Euros, and Bayern appear open to a sale if Tottenham can meet their revised valuation.
Tottenham Unwilling to Pay Full £50m Fee
Reports suggest Spurs will not trigger the original £50m option included in Tel’s loan deal — but are open to negotiating a lower price. That mirrors Bayern’s stance, with the Bundesliga giants reportedly keen to offload the striker this summer to fund other moves.
Tel scored 4 goals in his short Spurs stint and provided vital squad depth during a congested second half of the campaign. With Son Heung-min now 32 and Richarlison’s inconsistency ongoing, Tel is seen as a long-term prospect under Frank’s new regime.
