Overview

• Tottenham completed the permanent transfer of 20-year-old Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich on June 15, signing him to a contract until 2031.
• Spurs negotiated the fee down from the initial £45.8 million buy option to around £29.8 million after Tel scored three goals in 20 appearances during his loan spell.
• The deal represents the first official signing under new manager Thomas Frank, who approved Tel as part of his rebuilding plan ahead of Champions League football.
• Bayern sporting director Max Eberl affirmed that the move aligns with Tel’s development after limited first-team chances in Germany.
• Tottenham have also opened talks to acquire Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, targeting reinforcements familiar to Frank for next season.
