-

Tottenham Hotspur have secured the loan signing of forward Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich. 

The loan move includes an option to make the deal permanent in the summer for £45m.

The 19-year-old had reportedly turned down Spurs earlier this month, but he’s now set to link up with Ange Postecoglou’s side as they look to strengthen their attacking options.

Tel’s agent, Gadiri Camara, fuelled speculation on Monday by posting an image of the pair aboard a private jet, and within hours, reports confirmed his move to north London.

Since joining Bayern from Rennes in 2022, Tel has made 83 appearances, scoring 16 goals and providing seven assists. However, with limited opportunities in Germany, a Premier League switch could offer him the game time he craves.

Spurs ended a miserable run of form on Sunday with a 2-0 win over Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium – their first league victory in eight matches. While they currently sit 14th in the table, they remain in contention for silverware, having reached the Europa League last 16 and the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

Tel eventually finds his new home. Will it be a permanent stay?

It’s been a whirlwind few weeks for Mathys Tel. Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is said to have flown out to Munich last week in a bid to convince the French forward to make the move to north London—only for talks to break down.

Reports suggested Tel had his sights set on Manchester United or another of English football’s elite, while Arsenal remained keen right up until the deadline. Chelsea were also in the mix, reportedly weighing up a swap deal involving Christopher Nkunku earlier in the window.

But with no alternative move materialising, the situation took a dramatic twist. Out of nowhere, Tel’s agent, Gadiri Camara, posted an image of the pair aboard a private jet. Within minutes, reports emerged confirming a deal had been struck with Spurs, leaving English football on tenterhooks.

It’s been a chaotic window for Tel—one that saw Bayern initially insist he wasn’t for sale, only to then entertain interest from some of the Premier League’s biggest clubs. Now, he’s a Tottenham player. The question is, will he stay for good?

Brentford 2 - 2 Manchester City Manchester City’s bid for a fifth consecutive Premier League title took another hit as they squandered a 2-0 lead to draw against Brentford. Author - Macca The Bees looked down and out after trailing by two goals with just 12 minutes left, but Yoane Wissa sparked a dramatic comeback with a strike before captain Christian Nørgaard’s 92nd-minute header salvaged a point in a thrilling finale. Brentford nearly snatched all three points in the dying moments, but Nathan Aké came to City’s rescue, heading Bryan Mbeumo’s curling effort off the line in the 95th minute. City had taken the lead in the 66th minute, with Phil Foden expertly guiding a side-footed volley from Kevin De Bruyne’s sublime cross. Brentford almost levelled five minutes later, only for Aké to clear Wissa’s attempt, set up by Mbeumo’s impressive work around goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, off the line. Premier League: 2024/2025 season Foden looked to have sealed the win in the 78th minute, poun...

Have Everton started their road to recovery?

Everton 3 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur Everton began their road to recovery under returning manager David Moyes with an impressive victory at Goodison Park, piling further pressure on Tottenham's under-fire boss, Ange Postecoglou. Author - Sarah W  Spurs were disjointed and vulnerable for large parts of the game, as a revitalised Everton side – who had only managed three Premier League wins and 15 goals all season before this match – dominated proceedings. The Toffees raced to a well-deserved 3-0 lead by half-time and, despite a late Tottenham fightback, the final scoreline flattered the visitors, failing to capture the gulf in performance between the two teams. With both sides desperate for points, Everton swept Spurs aside in a blistering first half, laying the foundation for a crucial victory that condemned Postecoglou's side to their seventh defeat in 10 league matches. Dominic Calvert-Lewin broke a 1,288-minute Premier League goal drought dating back to September, skillfully ...

Manchester United 1 - 3 Brighton & Hove Albion Manchester United fell to their sixth home defeat of the season at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion. Author - Liam C Yankuba Minteh scored first for the visitors early in the match, but a penalty from Bruno Fernandes midway through the first half seemed to provide the foundation United needed to secure all three points. However, a chaotic second half saw Kaoru Mitoma tap home at the back post, before a mistake from Andre Onana gifted Georginio Rutter a third in an eventful 3-1 victory. It was hardly the way United's players would have wanted to mark the death of their iconic and legendary striker Denis Law . However, they deserved nothing more. This was another dreadful display in what is becoming a very bad season for the twenty times champions of England.  A closer look at what happened This was far from the kind of result or performance that would have honoured the great Denis Law.   The brilliance and flair ...
