Fabrizio Romano has just shared fresh Mathys Tel transfer update today

Spurs have been in dire need of recruits in the January transfer market, having only signed Slavia Prague goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky so far this window amid an injury to Guglielmo Vicario earlier in the campaign. However, it's their outfield ranks in which the club have struggled, and Daniel Levy could help Ange Postecoglou out in that regard. As a result, it's seen them linked with Tel - and Romano has revealed that the club are ready to agree a fee, though other English clubs could be in the race.

Writing exclusively in his transfer notebook, Romano further stated that the club are being rivalled by Chelsea, Aston Villa and United, whilst local rivals Arsenal could also spring a move for the Frenchman.

However, at present, it's Tottenham who are in the lead with their willingness to agree a fee for Tel's services in what would be a huge coup for the Lilywhites. Romano wrote:

"Tottenham are ready to agree on €60m fee with Bayern, the player is still taking his time to decide. Chelsea are still trying, Villa are in the mix for permanent deal, Man United as of now only for a loan. Let's see also what Arsenal do."

Dominic Solanke is out for around another six weeks, and so striking options are needed in north London, with Richarlison and Son Heung-min having to act as makeshift options for the time being.

Tel, despite being 19, already has a seriously impressive record at Bayern Munich and would represent a real coup for Spurs. The youngster was highly thought of in Bavaria prior to Vincent Kompany's arrival, but he's struggled for minutes under the Belgian, and is now free to leave.
