Mathys Tel has rejected a move to Tottenham. Spurs had reached a £50million agreement with Bayern over the player, leaving talks between Tel and his agent as the final hurdle to get a deal over the line. Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy was reportedly in Bavaria to 'accelerate talks' for the France international, keen to push forward as other Premier League outfits breathe down their neck. Tel has a number of offers on the table and it was thought that playing time would be key to his decision, with his decision to call it quits at Bayern coming after falling out of favour under Vincent Kompany.

That is something that Tottenham could have provided as their squad continues to be blighted by injuries. Dominic Solanke is out for six weeks, while Wilson Odobert, Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner are also currently sidelined. But, with personal terms the final hurdle to get the transfer over the line, Tel has rejected the move in the latest blow to Tottenham. Mathys Tel has rejected a move to Tottenham after Bayern Munich agreed a deal with the club.

The decision is the latest blow to Ange Postecoglou's side, who are struggling with injuries. The decision comes after Spurs' technical director Johan Lange was understood to have travelled to Munich on Wednesday to watch Tel play for Bayern in their Champions League win over Slovan Bratislava, where he opened negotiations. Chelsea, Aston Villa and Manchester United are also in dialogue with the player, who will still likely leave Bayern in the coming days.

Tel has been a Bayern player since August 2022 when he arrived from Rennes for £25m. He has scored 16 goals in his first 83 appearances for the Bundesliga giants but has spent a lot of time on the bench. Tottenham briefly spoke about signing Tel back in the summer of 2023 when they sold Harry Kane to Bayern. 'I usually find out at the tail end of this stuff what's going on,' manager Ange Postecoglou when asked about Tel. 'We're exploring some opportunities in the last couple of days of the window to see what we can do.
