Manchester United has officially thrown their hat into the ring for Bayern Munich’s promising forward, Mathys Tel, according to reports from Sky Sports Deutschland’s Florian Plettenberg.
Tel, at just 18 years old, has already made a notable impact, featuring in 27 matches across all competitions for the Bundesliga giants this season. Despite limited starts, he’s managed to contribute six goals and three assists, showcasing his potential on the field.
However, despite his talent, Tel has faced challenges in cementing his spot in Bayern’s starting lineup. With only four starts to his name, it’s clear that he’s still striving to establish himself as a core member of the squad.
Manchester United’s interest in Tel places them alongside two other English clubs in the race for his signature. The Red Devils have identified the teenager as a target for the upcoming summer transfer window. However, negotiations won’t be straightforward.
Reports suggest that Tel is hesitant to leave Bayern, harboring ambitions of becoming a club legend at the German champions. Nevertheless, if he feels his future opportunities are limited, he may consider a move elsewhere.
For Manchester United, securing attacking reinforcements is a priority as they seek to provide support for emerging talent like Rasmus Hojlund. With Anthony Martial expected to depart Old Trafford upon the expiration of his contract, the need for consistent goal-scoring options is pressing.
Manager Erik ten Hag is poised to be active in the transfer market, aiming to strengthen United’s forward line. Tel’s potential acquisition could signal an exciting step forward for the Red Devils as they strive to enhance their attacking prowess for the challenges ahead.
