£60m option to buy in the summer apparently. Nice one.

€ not £ apparently. Pedantic I know, but a saving for us.

This signing could go one of two ways……
Let’s hope it’s one that brings the player success

I'd need someone to Tel me if this is a good signing or not... Never heard of the kid.

Got this from a mate in Germany who is a Bayern fan;
“Hi mate, Congratulations on Mathys Tel. He will be a great addition and you will have fun watching him.”

Can only imagine the commentator wordplay. But for us Yids, I feel like there's more we can do with his given name: Messiah Tel? Don't want to lay too much on another teenager, but we do need a saviour of some sort.

Bit of a unique setup as we are taking a risk given he may not wish to stay after this summer.
Usually these deals are unilateral & left in the hands of the buying club as to whether they will take up the option to buy.
Player has already agreed to the terms of the contract.
Nevertheless, I have faith in Ange to sort it out.

Andy Brassell knows a hell of a lot about European football, and he's got some very nice things to say about Tel:
An unbelievable finisher’: why Mathys Tel is a perfect fit for Spurs

Indeed. Spent all that time on the transfer and persuading the player to come and then sorting out the purchase clause on top of everything only to play him out of position and stick him back on the bench in favour of a woefully out of form Sonny.

He hasn't really shown much to warrant such a fee.
Then again, he's hasn't been played in his preferred position which must be frustrating when you want to prove yourself.
Having said that, & someone on this forum can chime in, those that have watched plenty of Bayern matches say that "he isn't really that good". Not my words. Just reiterating what I've been told.

They were saying on the VFTL podcast that due to Muller's retirement, Musiala's injury, and some other factors, he might have to actually go back to Bayern for this club world cup clusterfuck this summer. But that wouldn't mean they want to keep him of course.
