A big hit on the head for Mathys Tel. Entered the 80th minute of the UEFA Super Cup 2025 while Tottenham led 2-0, the young French striker saw Paris Saint-Germain equalize at the end of the suspense to snatch a 2-2 draw and a penalty shootout. An exercise in which Mathys such was missed by completely missing the frame on the left. He was also the target of racist comments following this and Tottenham went up to the niche to defend it. Precipitating the defeat (4-3 at the TAB) of his team with Micky Van de Van, the other shooter who has not transformed, Mathys Tel has a new weak time in his career which has started to beat the wing for a few months, even a few seasons.
Leaving Rennes for Bayern Munich in 2022 against 20 million euros, the native of Sarcelles had a promising first season (6 goals in 28 games) and even did better during the following exercise with Thomas Tuchel (10 goals and 6 assists in 41 matches). However, the German coach had trouble seeing him more than a luxury joker and things even got worse last season with Vincent Kompany. During only 14 pieces of matches for 0 goal and 1 assist with the Belgian technician, he was loaned last winter to Tottenham. A mixed experience in content (20 matches, 3 goals and 2 assists). However, the Spurs still recruited French for 35 million euros.
A disturbing preparation
Winning the Europa League as a replacement, Mathys Tel must now take advantage of this next season to really spend a course. The main interested party is aware of this as he explained last June to The team :: “In a career, many things happen. There are positive and more negative moments. When I was worse, I just told myself that it was a bad wave, I took it, I faced it, I worked, I stayed patient. This is the most important thing: you should not get impatient, because this is what makes you drift. Today, I have a new club, playing time, a new title in the charts … My empty passage enriched me, in a way. »»
In competition with Richarlison, Dominic Solanke or Mohamed Kudus in the offensive sector, Mathys Tel will have to redouble their efforts. Mute during the six preparation matches of his team during the summer, the French notably distinguished himself in bad ways with a monstrous failure in preparation against Nick Pope against Newcastle (1-1). With the UEFA Super Cup final yesterday where its entry was complicated and its shot with a missed goal, the dynamics are not ideal for Mathys Tel. If he has the confidence of his new coach Thomas Frank and will have possibilities to express himself in the Champions League this year, the former Rennais will quickly have to get her head back to the place. First Saturday against Burnley then the following week with a shock to negotiate against Manchester City.
