As expected, Chairman Levi wasn't a foolI'm not going to invest 100 billion won in three-goal prospects
Tottenham is unlikely to recruit Matistel for the amount agreed with Bayern Munich.

Germany's Sport Bild also mentioned Tel's future on the 22nd (Korea time), predicting players who could leave Bayern in the summer transfer market.

As for Tel, Bayern are looking forward to doing business with Tottenham. However, it seems unlikely that Tottenham will pay 50 million euros (about 81.4 billion won), excluding 10 million euros (about 16.3 billion won) out of 60 million euros (about 97.6 billion won), which is the contracted transfer fee.

Tottenham needed an extra striker in the transfer window last winter. Timo Werner was out of Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou's eye, and Hishalisson was not at all helpful to the team as he struggled only with injuries. The destructive power of players such as Son Heung-min and Brennan Johnson has also had ups and downs throughout the season.




Tottenham, who had tried to make a change, attempted to sign Tell, who had been unhappy with his playing time at Bayern. Tottenham tried to completely recruit Tel by offering a whopping €60 million as a transfer fee. Bayern also accepted, but the transfer was not made as Tel refused.

There was a turnaround at the end of the transfer window. When Postecoglou persuaded him directly, Tel accepted the direction of transfer after loan. It was not a mandatory transfer clause. Expectations were high because he was a prospect who had a lot of expectations in Bayern, but the future has already been set to some extent.

Tottenham were hoping to bring Tel in boldly and help him a lot in the second half of the season, but Tel fell short of Tottenham's expectations. So far, he has only scored three goals in 13 games. The productivity of attack points is also low, but the presence in the stadium is not satisfactory.

In this situation, if Tottenham pays the transfer fee agreed with Bayern and pushes ahead with recruiting a player, fans are expected to strongly oppose it. This is because Tel has not shown any ability to rise to the main level at Tottenham. If Bayern cuts the transfer fee, a deal may be made, but with Postecoglou's future away, the attempt to transfer to Tel is expected to be passed on to the next manager.

The variable is the European battle. Tel is said to have no intention of staying if Tottenham fails to advance to the European competition next season. Peter O'Rourke, who was fluent in Tottenham's internal news, said in an English Football Insider last week that `Tottenham will have a hard time keeping Tel in the team permanently if they fail to make it to the European match. Tottenham want to leave Tel, whose loan deal ends in May, but have no intention of paying €50m."
