Mathys Tel joins Tottenham Hotspur on permanent deal till 2031

Tottenham secure Mathys Tel permanently from Bayern Munich in a long-term deal after his successful loan spell, boosting their attacking options.

"The move to Tottenham has turned out to be the right one for his development. - Max Eberl, Bayern Munich"

London, June 15

Tottenham Hotspur have signed forward Mathys Tel on a permanent deal till 2031, the Premier League club announced on Sunday.

Mathys joined Hotspur from the Bundesliga side in February on loan until the end of the season with an option to make the move permanent. He made his debut for the club as a substitute against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup before marking his first start with a goal against Aston Villa in the FA Cup. His first Premier League strike came from the penalty spot in a 3-1 win over Southampton in April. The versatile forward made 20 appearances in all competitions last season, scoring 3 goals.

Mathys is currently representing France at the 2025 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, alongside fellow Spurs teammate Wilson Odobert.

"Mathys Tel came to FC Bayern as a very young player and mastered his first steps at the top level of European football here," Bayern's head of sport Max Eberl said in a statement. "He was a popular figure in the squad, who always gave his all for the club and the team. The move to Tottenham has turned out to be the right one for his development."

The 20-year-old joined Bayern Munich from Stade Rennes in 2022 on a four-year contract, later extending his deal until 2029 in March last year. He has scored 16 goals in 83 appearances for the German club but has found it difficult to secure a regular spot in the starting lineup.

He now becomes the first signing under new head coach Thomas Frank, who was appointed on Friday following the dismissal of Ange Postecoglou.

Great signing for Spurs! Tel showed flashes of brilliance at Bayern but never got consistent playing time. At just 20, he has massive potential. Hope he gets more opportunities under Thomas Frank. Indian football fans will be watching - we love young talents making their mark abroad! 🇮🇳⚽

Not sure about this signing... 3 goals in 20 appearances isn't great. Spurs need proven goal scorers if they want to challenge for top 4. Maybe he'll develop, but seems risky for a club that's been struggling lately. Hope I'm wrong though!

As an Indian football fan, I'm excited to see young talents like Tel getting big moves! His versatility across the front line will be valuable. Remember how Sonny developed at Spurs? Maybe Tel can follow that path. Best of luck to him! 🤞

Interesting to see Spurs going for young French talent again. After Ndombele didn't work out, I hope they've learned their lessons in player development. Tel seems more disciplined though. Will be watching his progress closely!

Contract till 2031? That's a huge commitment for a 20-year-old! Shows how much Spurs believe in him. Hope he repays that faith. Meanwhile, Indian clubs should take note - this is how you invest in young talent for long-term gains.

His performance in the U-21 Euros will be interesting to watch. If he does well there, Spurs fans will be even more excited. As an Indian who follows European football closely, I think this could be a smart move if they're patient with his development.
