  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Tel arrived on loan in the January transfer window, having failed to make an impact at the Allianz Arena in two-and-a-half seasons after his arrival from Rennes in 2022. In 20 appearances for Spurs, the 20-year-old accumulated under 1,300 minutes and scored just three goals. Despite failing to impress head coach Ange Postecoglou, Spurs are preparing a new offer to keep him.

  Tottenham spent €10 million (£8m/$11m) in loan fees to acquire Tel's services, with a €50m (£42m/$57m) option to sign him permanently, but that figure is too high for them. Faced with high costs, the London club are exploring alternatives, including a loan deal with a big fee and an obligation to buy at the end of next season.
