Napoli are reluctant to improve on their £42million valuation and Chelsea are waiting in the wings to make a formal offer. They are still monitoring the changing situation with Bayern Munich winger Mathys Tel, who could now leave the German giants having only recently pledged his loyalty.

Teenage Tel had been left on the bench in Bayern's last three games before starting against Slovan Bratislava last night, and is reconsidering his future. But the player is aware that he would face the same level of competition for a place at Chelsea as he would at the Allianz Arena.
The Red Devils are interested in a move for Tel on loan as they look to bolster their own attacking options. Tel, 19, is also wanted by Tottenham and wants regular football, making a move there more favourable. Chelsea are prepared to leave it late in order to get the best deals possible. The transfer window closes at 11pm on Monday.

He's improving a lot. He's a young, talented guy. You want to work with these talented players.
