In full explosion on the side of Bayern Munich, Mathys Tel is of very serious interest to the German Federation which has opened the door to naturalization of the striker.

This is one of the major revelations of the start of the season for the Bundesliga. Purchased in the summer of 2022 from Stade Rennais for twenty million euros, Mathys Tel is taking advantage of the trust placed in him by Thomas Tuchel to stand out. If he is not a starter, the Frenchman manages to do well as soon as the opportunity arises. Thus, in the 310 minutes that he logged over eleven matches, in all competitions, he scored six goals and provided an assist. A hell of a performance that caught the eye of the Mannschaft.

And in particular that of Rudi Völler. The sports director of the German management spoke out on the case of Mathys Tel on the antenna of Bild TV. Asked about the possibility of naturalizing the native of Sarcelles, the German leader said he was very open. “ He’s a great striker. We could certainly give it a try. But in the end, it’s the player and his family who decide. » Recognizing, however, the difficulty of reaching such a conclusion, Rudi Völler added: “ The roots are very French.

A sweet dream

The sweet German dream therefore has very little chance of coming true one day. Further proof of the utopia of such a project, Mathys Tel has just been called by Thierry Henry to the Espoirs, he who declared a few weeks ago on bein Sports : “ The French team is in my head because it is my nation and my country. » Unless he never catches the A wagon, Mathys Tel should not wear the Mannschaft jersey.
