Overview
- Roma have contacted Spurs and are working on a January loan for Tel, whom Gian Piero Gasperini views as a leading option to strengthen the left side of his attack.
- Tottenham are not considering a permanent sale in winter and are open to a short-term deal running to the end of the season, according to multiple reports.
- Tel has had limited minutes under Thomas Frank and was excluded from the Champions League squad after Randal Kolo Muani’s arrival, with reports describing the player as unhappy.
- The forward has recently scored for Spurs in a 2-2 draw with Manchester United and struck the winner for France Under-21s against the Faroe Islands, taking his U21 tally to 12 goals in 20 games.
- One former club scout told Football Insider that injuries in Tottenham’s attack could reduce the likelihood of a January exit despite Roma’s interest.
