Mathys Tel holds fresh talks with Manchester United despite Tottenham agreement with Bayern Munich

Mathys Tel’s entourage has reportedly held new talks with Manchester United, even though Tottenham and Bayern Munich have an agreement for a deal worth €60 million.

According to an update by reputed German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Mathys Tel remains the subject of interest from Manchester United. Bayern Munich and Tottenham Hotspur have sealed a verbal agreement over a deal worth €60 million for the 19-year-old prodigy. However, the Red Devils have held new talks with his entourage to beat the Lilywhites to his signature.

Mathys Tel and his career so far

Mathys Tel has endured a frustrating spell since joining Bayern Munich from Stade Rennais in July 2022. A native of Sarcelles, the Frenchman spent most of his formative years in his homeland, passing through the academies at five clubs and graduating from the youth division at Stade Rennais.

However, the 19-year-old has struggled for game time since joining Bayern Munich, managing less than 2,500 minutes of game time in 83 appearances thus far in two and a half years at the Bundesliga club. That has not affected the youngster’s returns, as he has chipped in with 16 goals and seven assists.

Meanwhile, Tel recently appeared to bid goodbye to the Bayern Munich fans after reportedly requesting the Bundesliga club to part ways with him in the winter transfer window. The situation has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe, including Premier League bigwigs like Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United.

Premier League adventure on the horizon?

Tottenham Hotspur recently secured a verbal agreement to sign Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich in a deal worth €60 million in the winter transfer window. The Lilywhites are in the middle of an injury crisis, which has engulfed the offensive unit. So, Tottenham needed an offensive signing this month, and they have closed in on signing the 19-year-old Frenchman.

However, the teenage prospect is also a target for Manchester United, with the Red Devils keen on signing him on an initial loan deal. With Marcus Rashford facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford, the Bayern Munich prodigy has emerged as a viable target for Manchester United. So, they have held new talks with the youngster’s entourage.

It is unclear if Manchester United’s renewed efforts to tempt Tel will reap the desired results. The French attacking prospect remains highly likely to join Tottenham after the North London club secured a verbal agreement to sign him from Bayern Munich in a deal worth €60 million.
