New Tottenham signing Mathys Tel would like to move to Man Utd in the summer transfer window if a deal becomes possible, according to reports.

Tottenham Hotspur have completed the loan signing of Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich until the end of the season. The deal includes an option to buy Tel for €55million (£45.7m; $56.9m) on a six-year contract.

The Lilywhites agreed a loan deal with buy option to sign Tel from Bayern Munich on deadline day of the winter transfer window.

Ange Postecoglou persuaded Tel to join Tottenham on deadline day, and may need to drop the French 19-year-old into his starting XI for Thursday night’s Carabao Cup semi-final second leg at Anfield

Manchester United and Chelsea had previously been interested in Tel, who has one assist in 14 games for Bayern Munich this season.
