Following their January loan agreement for his Bavarian teammate Mathys Tel, Tottenham Hotspur is said to have recently conducted direct talks with another Bayern Munich player. It is thought that Vincent Kompany’s team is prepared to lose him this summer.
Mathys Tel impresses for Tottenham after Bayern Munich switch
After first rejecting the club’s efforts, Tel completely changed his mind about joining Spurs, making it one of the most dramatic transfer tales of the winter window.
Chairman Daniel Levy personally flew to Munich for sit-down talks with the 19-year-old, who initially rejected the Lilywhites and their board member’s offer to join Spurs before deadline day (Florian Plettenberg).
Ange Postecoglou, the under-fire Tottenham manager, reportedly had a significant influence in persuading the adolescent to transfer to north London, even though Levy returned home empty-handed.

“Daniel Levy flew to Munich last week because Johan Lange feared that his meeting and presentation with Mathys Tel didn’t have the desired impact,” Loic Tanzi, a reporter for L’Equipe,
“Tel informed Levy that he would not be joining Spurs following their meeting. It was as much about not being persuaded by Spurs as it was about demonstrating that he wouldn’t be coerced into doing anything by Bayern. Tel had a phone conversation with Ange Postecoglou on Sunday evening. Postecoglou put forward how he planed to use Tel, expressed how much he valued Tel’s versatility and speed, and expressed that he thought Tel could torment Premier League defences with his qualities.”
Tel has since delighted onlookers with his passion in an otherwise dreadfully out-of-form team by signing a temporary N17 transfer that includes an option to buy for in and around £50 million.
According to CaughtOffside, Tel’s Bayern teammate Leroy Sané may join him at Hotspur Way after the Frenchman scored his first goal for Tottenham in a 2-1 FA Cup loss to Aston Villa.
Tottenham hold direct talks with Leroy Sané as Bayern stance revealed
The German, who cost Kompany’s side around £55 million to sign from Man City in 2020, is set to be a free agent at the end of this season. Bayern, despite their best efforts to tie him down with fresh terms, have “all but given up” on trying to keep the 29-year-old – giving Spurs a golden opportunity to snap him up at zero cost.
CO write that Tottenham have held recent talks with Sane, and could hold a financial advantage over Barcelona in the race for his signature. The Lilywhites have apparently emerged as “serious contenders” for his signature, which bodes well for next term considering Sane’s obvious quality. “Leroy is best player in the world out wide,” said Man City boss Pep Guardiola back in 2019. “I’d prefer to use him where he is strongest, he’s an incredible player.”
