Spurs are understood to be interested in Mathys Tel, Bayern’s fast rising 18-year-old attacking star. Thomas Tuchel’s plan is to keep the France youth international for the season but the manager has admitted it could change “if something changes very late in the transfer window”. Tuchel’s comment has been interpreted in Germany as a sign that Bayern could be prepared for their pursuit of Kane to go to the wire.

Superbly talented player, but he has been adamant that he doesn’t want to leave Bayern and apparently has rejected loads of European clubs already in favour of staying and fighting for his place in Bayern.

Not sure if I’d want to trade out one player that doesn’t want to be here for another. 🤷‍♂️

He wouldn't come to us anyway, but even more so when he'll have Kane to learn from at Bayern.

We were signing Mbappe last week and now we're looking at this guy? Absolute disgrace Levy always looking to take the cheap route SMH.

Tottenham to use Harry Kane talks with Bayern Munich to discuss Mathys Tel​

French teenager compared to Kylian Mbappe of interest to Spurs as Bayern executives hope to meet Levy in London on Monday

Bayern Munich hope to meet with Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy on Monday in their latest bid to sign Harry Kane, which could be boosted by interest from Spurs in the German club’s attacking starlet Mathys Tel.

As reported by Telegraph Sport, Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen and the technical director Marco Neppe are flying to London for a new round of talks with Levy.

There had been an expectation that Dreesen and Neppe would arrive in London on Friday, but it appears their journey has been pushed back in time for them to arrive for a planned meeting on Monday.

The fact Levy is apparently willing to even engage in talks with Bayern is seen as hugely significant in Germany, where the expectation remains that Kane will move.

Bayern may also have an ace up their sleeve in the form of 18-year-old attacking talent Tel, who – according to sources in his native France – Tottenham have made enquiries over this summer.

A France Under-19 international, Tel has drawn comparisons with Kylian Mbappe. Bayern’s current plan is to keep Tel and it remains to be seen whether they would be prepared to let him go, either on loan or permanently, to help clinch a deal for Kane.

Asked about the future of Tel, Bayern head coach Thomas Tuchel recently said: “We will definitely discuss that – if something changes – very late in the transfer window.”

Kane was part of Tottenham’s pre-season tour, but is believed to be open to a move to Bayern should they manage to clinch an agreement with Levy.

The situation is complicated by the fact that sources claim Levy had been close to agreeing a deal to sell Kane to Paris St-Germain, but the striker does not want to move to France this summer.

PSG remain willing to outbid any other club for Kane, but it would take a major U-turn from the England captain to consider an offer – effectively leaving Levy with the choice of negotiating a deal with Bayern or risk his star man leaving on a free transfer when his contract expires next summer.

Bayern are thought to be willing to pay up to £86 million to sign Kane this summer, but are also confident they could land the player, who celebrated his 30th birthday on Friday, in January when he can sign a pre-contract agreement with an overseas club ahead of a move next summer.

Dreesen is reported to have met Levy in London two weeks ago and there have even been suggestions that Bayern would agree to a buy-back option for Tottenham in a bid to land Kane this summer, which could help to satisfy all parties.

Personally think this one reeks of “Understand Mathys Tel has zero interest in Tottenham move and is happy at Bayern” articles being spread everywhere tomorrow.

Going to make the Kane leaving PR even worse, when in 12 hours we get a raft of stories about how Tel has told us to bolt. Annoying thing is, imo, he’d be an ideal signing, even if it meant us getting say £65/70m plus him on a perm.

Reality is, it’s 100% just a story to anger spurs fans even more, I can’t see any way we’d end up with him.

If we got €100 million total for Kane plus Tel on a 2 year no recall loan I’d be happy. Little buyback in Kane’s contract and I think all parties would get what they want. We get decent fee and an outstanding, exciting talent that would suit our new style of play, and Bayern get their marquee signing and a young player developed.

Very surprised at the negative reaction here. IMO he's nowhere near a "Frazier Campbell" type player. Almost worth not going into because I can't see him coming.

At age 18, with mostly substitute appearances - he was able to still average a goal every 75 minutes and managed 5 Bundesliga goals. His data shows that he's already a great dribbler. He can play both winger positions as well as ST, similar to Muani.

This would be the only chance to get a player like this, but I still doubt he'd want to come at this point.
 

For the love of Spurs

so would this be like a swap buy back. Have Kane for 2-3 seasons then we swap back.

So we spend two tears developing their player for them, and then spend a chunk of the transfer fee we received for Kane to buy him back with more miles on the clock?

It sounds...not ideal!
