Mathys Tel rehects proposal from Tottenham Hotspur as he holds out for Man United move – Man United News And Transfer News

Bayern Munich forward and reported Manchester United target Mathys Tel has rejected a proposed move to Tottenham Hotspur.

Tel put Premier clubs on red alert after it emerged he wants to leave Bayern in search of regular first-team minutes.

In addition to United and Spurs, the other clubs mentioned to be interested in signing Tel before the February 3 deadline are Arsenal, Chelsea and Aston Villa.

However, it’s believed that the France U21 international prefers United ahead of all other transfer destinations.

A report covered by The Peoples Person relayed that Tel is waiting for the Red Devils to make an approach for him. It was stated that he wants to determine whether United’s interest is concrete before making a decision on his future.

On Thursday, Le Parisien and L”Equipe revealed that Spurs and Bayern struck a €60m deal that would see Tel seal a permanent switch to North London.

However, Tel never gave his approval. Spurs chairman Daniel Levy jetted to Munich in an attempt to convince the teenager to join Ange Postecoglou’s ranks but it seems those efforts were futile.

According to journalist Loïc Tanzi, Tel “has refused” to join Spurs.
