Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of Bayern Munich star Mathys Tel could be a game-changer, especially with Arsenal left with limited options in the transfer window.

The 19-year-old forward, who had previously turned down a move to Spurs, seems to have had a change of heart and is now set to finalize a loan deal to North London—just in time for the deadline day.

Arsenal’s Hopes of Signing Tel Dwindle

Arsenal had shown significant interest in Mathys Tel, and they were one of several clubs, including Manchester United, who had been monitoring his situation after he initially rejected a move to Tottenham.

However, with the French forward now on his way to Spurs, the Gunners’ chances of signing him have all but disappeared.

This development leaves Arsenal with fewer options in terms of bringing in a new forward.

While a last-minute loan move could still be possible, it’s looking increasingly unlikely that they’ll manage to secure another striker in this window.

After successfully completing a loan deal for Raheem Sterling last summer, Arsenal fans had hoped for a similar transfer this time around, but it seems those expectations may not be met.

Spurs Take Action to Secure Tel After Surprise Change of Heart

Tottenham’s technical director, Johan Lange, has reportedly traveled to Munich to watch Tel in action during Bayern’s Champions League win against Slovan Bratislava.

Impressed by what he saw, Lange quickly began negotiations, returning to the UK with a deal for Tel nearly in place.

A key factor in Tel’s decision to move was his need for more playing time.

After finding himself lower down the pecking order under Bayern manager Vincent Kompany this season, the young striker is eager to make an impact elsewhere.

With 16 goals in 83 appearances for Bayern, Tel has shown his potential, and Spurs are hopeful that he’ll add depth to their attacking options.

Spurs’ Busy Window Continues with Disasi Pursuit

Once Tel’s loan is confirmed, he will become Tottenham’s third signing of the transfer window, following goalkeeper Antonin Kinsy and defender Kevin Danso.

However, Spurs aren’t done yet.

The club is still working on securing a deal for French defender Axel Disasi from Chelsea, despite some setbacks earlier in the window.

Although it was initially believed that Tottenham had been priced out of a move for Disasi, Spurs haven’t given up hope of bringing him to North London.

Despite the player’s earlier rejection of a move to Spurs, the club is still pushing for a deal, eager to add more defensive strength to their squad.
