It was confirmation season. After a rather interesting six-month loan from Spurs last season, the Londoners permanently retained Mathys Tel for 40 million euros. Clearly, Tottenham saw the former Bayern player as a future world leader in his position, therefore not hesitating to put his hand in his pocket. Unfortunately, things don’t really go as planned for the French international hopefuls…
Worse, he was not included in the list of players able to participate in the Champions League, which obviously affected him a little. “When you’re not on a list, it sure hurts. But I’m someone who stays pretty positive, no matter the situation.”he confided in September. This season, he has only played 267 minutes in the Premier League, spread over 10 matches, including only 3 as a starter. The former Stade Rennais was still able to score twice, against Leeds in October and against Manchester United at the beginning of November.
A pretty suitor
But everyone is aware of it, for him to be able to exploit his potential as best as possible, he must play more regularly. More than the 18 minutes combined in Spurs’ last two matches against Fulham and Newcastle. As indicated La Gazzetta dello Sporta club is already interested in his services for the month of January. It’s AS Roma, fourth in the Serie A standings after 13 days but just one point from first place.
Gian Piero Gasperini, coach of La Louve, wishes to strengthen his offensive sector, and the transalpine publication specifies that he wants a top attacker, but also a left wing player. Mathys Tel is even the priority of Gasp for this position. If the media does not say more about the player’s intentions or those of Tottenham, we imagine that the future of Thomas Frank, contested, will also be decisive in this story, since the arrival of a new coach could change things.
