Tottenham succeeded in recruiting Bayern Munich striker Matisse Tell on loan. The option to recruit Tel for 55 million euros (about 83 billion won) under a six-year contract was included. Tottenham acquired Tel for the fourth time this season after Antonin Kinski, Yang Min-hyuk and Kevin Danso. Tel is considered the best recruit of all.

Global media The Athletic evaluated the recruitment of Tel as a 332 out of 500 points on the 4th (Korea time). In other words, it was judged as an excellent recruitment.

First of all, the areas where Tel received the highest score are injury records (46 points), player reinforcement (45 points), contract terms (42 points), and market value (40 points).

Tell has never suffered a major injury in his career. Since the opening of the 2022-2023 season, he has missed six games due to physical fitness problems.

Above all, as Tottenham's offense lives with injuries, it is true that this aspect of 'steel king' is a positive factor for the club. Tel's technique is also expected to have a positive effect on the sluggish offense.

Tottenham's attackers have been hit hard by injuries this season We desperately need to reinforce our players. Dominic Solanke, Wilson O'Dober, Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner are all out due to injuries. Son Heung-min is holding up well, but there is a great concern about injury as he is physically struggling. Tel's addition can greatly help Son Heung-min's burden as well as the overall offense's physical strength buildup.

The terms and conditions of the contract are also excellent. It was said that only the initial lease contract would proceed, but in reality, it included a full recruitment clause. Tottenham have good terms to check Tel's skills for the rest of the season and sign him for six years for 55 million euros. Young players can be tied up for a long time, so they can be sold at a high price later.

Tel also scored not bad in the team's future (38 points), tactical fitness (35 points), and interest factor (27 points).

For Tottenham, which is looking for a long-term successor to Son Heung-min, it could be a perfect alternative resource if Tel is fully recruited based on this short-term loan. If he successfully adapts to the English Premier League (EPL), he may be responsible for Tottenham's next 10 years. It is clear that Manchester United and Chelsea are promising players in the future, just as they have shown interest in Tel.

Tel is also tactically suited to the Enze Postecoglou oversight regime. Best for the left inside forward role, but a versatile player who can also play on the right side and the front line. It also combines stable first touch and finishing ability with an explosive dribbler. He is optimized for counterattacks with fast speed.

Based on these capabilities, he is a player who can also interest fans. However, it may be memorable for some fans to reject Tottenham's offer to recruit during the transfer period.

The media evaluated that Tel's only problems were recent form (13 points) and marketability (12 points).

Tel played just 14 games this season as they were pushed out of Munich's priority list. He made only four starts and recorded only one assist in 458 minutes. Some say that technology still needs to be supplemented due to the lack of time to play. Although he has good dribbling ability, there have been consistent criticisms that improvement is needed because he has many disappointing appearances in shooting. However, the pass capability seems to have improved recently. There is a high possibility that your ability will improve when you are guaranteed regular playing time.

The Athletic explained that `Tell has plenty of potential, but there is something that needs to be supplemented in order for Tottenham to make the most of his strengths during this loan spell.' On his marketing potential, he also said "Marketing potential is unlikely to be significant, but another young player recruitment will benefit Tottenham's overall squad."
