Real Madrid apparently made a last-minute attempt to intervene in the Bayern transfer of Mathys Tel (17) last summer. According to information from ‘tz’, the Spanish record champions wanted the offensive talent “necessarily”but it was simply too late.
At that time, Tel’s advisor had already given FC Bayern the promise, and Tel had also made Munich his clear priority. The driving force behind the transfer is said to have been Bayern’s technical director Marco Neppe.
More operating times?
The French youth international, who has a contract until 2025, switched from Stade Rennes to the Bundesliga for a base fee of 20 million euros. After FT-Info, the amount can even increase to 40 million depending on success.
Tel has scored four goals in twelve appearances so far. He was mostly used as a substitute, either on the flank or as a sole striker. Due to the absence of Sadio Mané (30), there are now more playing times. According to ‘tz’, trainer Julian Nagelsmann also wants to bring the right foot into the team as a second striker alongside Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (33).
