Harry Kane has backed Mathys Tel to be a success at Tottenham after he joined the club on loan from Bayern Munich. Tel signed for Spurs in a bid to get more game time, having made just four starts for Bayern this season, and Tottenham legend Kane is confident the 19-year-old can make a huge impact at a club which currently sits 14th in the Premier League. "It's a great move for both parties," said Kane, who is teammates with Tel at Bayern, on Cleats Club. "Mathys is a great guy, really hard working and full of potential. It'll be important for him to get some minutes under his belt, get some regular game time and hopefully develop, keep improving and fulfil all the potential that he has.

"It's great for Tottenham to have a young, hungry player with loads of talent to hopefully score some goals and help push Tottenham as far as possible. I wish him all the best and hopefully he has a fantastic time there, I know he will. I'm sure all the fans will make him feel really welcome as well.". And Tel has revealed that Kane helped persuade him to join Spurs, with the pair discussing the potential move. "He told me this is a big club with a lot of very good people," Tel told club media.

"The pitch is very nice. The training centre is very good. And if you go there, you can enjoy it. So everything was positive from Harry Kane." Explaining his decision to join Tottenham despite interest from the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United, Tel added: "I'm very excited to play with my teammates and for the fans. "It's a new challenge for me, a new chapter to open and I'm very excited about it. Why I chose Tottenham? Because it was the best option for me. What was important for me was I felt the commitment.

"I spoke with the president, talked with the manager. I'm young, I need to grow up and that was for me the best option and now I'm very, very happy. I think I'm a physical player, fast, technical and I play every moment and every game with my heart. "I live with this pressure. I always have to push myself to go up and look forward. Football is always a dream for me to play in the first team, for the best in the world. I'm ready for every game, that's why I'm here and I know what I have to do for Tottenham, for the team and for the fans. I know what I have to do and that's what I hope I'm going to do.".
