Bayern Munich forward Mathys Tel has landed in England ahead of a proposed move to Tottenham.
Tel’s agent posted an image on Instagram of the Bayern Munich teenager aboard a private plane heading for London, with the 19-year-old landing at Farnborough Airport.
Sky Sports News understands the structure of the deal is still being negotiated between the clubs with Bayern understood to prefer a permanent deal or a loan which includes an obligation to buy.
Tel turned down the chance to sign for Tottenham earlier this week after the clubs had agreed a ยฃ50m deal.
Negotiations stalled on Friday with Premier League rivals Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United also interested in France international Tel.
But in a massive U-turn, Tel has changed his mind after a long conversation with Spurs head coach Ange Postecoglou on how he will be used.
It represents a further boost for Postecoglou, who has faced mounting external pressure but watched his depleted team make it three wins from their last four matches with a 2-0 victory over Brentford on Sunday.
The addition of centre-back Kevin Danso from Lens was also confirmed on Sunday as Tottenham look to salvage their campaign, with the prospect of trophy success still possible due to participation in the Carabao Cup, Europa League and FA Cup.
Spurs face a crucial week with a trip to Liverpool on Thursday, live on Sky Sports, to determine who qualifies for next month’s Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
An FA Cup fourth-round tie with Aston Villa follows three days later and Postecoglou could have Tel available for both fixtures if he receives international clearance and a work permit in time. (SkySports)
