Mathys Tel, a 20-year-old centre-forward who was targeted by several teams during the winter transfer window, will continue his career at Tottenham. The French player decided to stay with the Spurs after a discussion with his manager, Thomas Frank, who reassured him about his role. Tel, who had been undecided, was approached in January by Sunderland, Paris FC, AS Roma, Genoa, Real Sociedad, Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Atletico Madrid. In France, Olympique de Marseille, AS Monaco, and Lille had also inquired about his situation. Tel joined Tottenham in July 2025 from Bayern Munich for a reported fee of €35-40 million, which followed a €10 million loan fee; his contract runs until 2031. The France U21 international has 20 caps and 12 goals. He has scored 3 goals in 16 Premier League appearances this season. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €30.00m.
