'I won't go to TottenhamThe young striker's mind was turned upside down at one point.

Bayern Munich's Supernova Matistel (20) eventually wore a Tottenham Hotspur uniform at the end of the transfer window. It's amazing news of a major twist.

Why did you change your mind. At first, it was analyzed that Tel accepted Tottenham's offer to take the opportunity to play as the transfer to other teams he originally wanted to go to, namely Manchester United or Arsenal, fell through.

However, a shocking behind-the-scenes story soon emerged. There was a figure who convinced Tell to accept Tottenham's offer. It was Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou.

A surprising behind-the-scenes story has been revealed that Postecoglou called Tel directly and led to Tottenham joining after a long conversation.

Team Talk, a British media outlet, reported on the 4th (Korean time) 'Postecoglou was found to have played a decisive role in Tel's transfer to Tottenham'

Tottenham is almost being treated as a 'deficit club' in the January transfer market. Since the beginning of the season, the main players have continued to leave due to injuries and have continued to decline in power, and they have pushed for recruiting players with a desperate mind. It promoted the recruitment of various players across all positions from goalkeepers to strikers. However, the results were negligible.

In particular, even when the agreement between the clubs was completed, there were a number of cases in which the player refused to transfer, saying, `I will not go to Tottenham.' In the end, only two acquisitions were made by the January transfer market deadline, and goalkeeper Antonin Kinski and defender Kevin Danso joined.

However, a major reversal occurred a few hours before the closing of the transfer market. Tel changed his mind and accepted Tottenham's loan transfer in a surprise move. Tel was originally refusing to go to Tottenham despite an agreement between the clubs. Tottenham tried to completely recruit Tel by offering 60 million euros (about 90.3 billion won) to Munich to reinforce its striker a few days ago. Munich accepted this proposal. However, it seemed that the plate was broken because Tel expressed its refusal to do so.

It was Postecoglou's 'Walk' that saved the plate that seemed to be all broken. He called Tel directly and succeeded in persuading him after a long conversation.

Sky Sports in the UK arrived at Farnborough Airport on the 4th ahead of 'Tell's transfer to Tottenham. Postecoglou has had a long conversation with Tell and explained how he will use him, the report said.

The team talk gave more details. The media told the behind-the-scenes story of Julien Lawrence, a French football reporter, on his personal SNS. Reporter Lawrence explained, "'Postecoglou convinced Tottenham to join after a long phone call with Tel. Tottenham manager played a big role in recruiting the most coveted young talent in Europe.

However, this is not the first time that Postecoglou's ' convincing power' has shown its true value. It has led to amazing recruitment before. Coach Postecoglou also played a big role in recruiting James Maddison in the summer 2023 transfer market.

Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge said "As far as I know, Postecoglou has had a long conversation with Tel. He explained how he would use him in the future, and when he heard about it, Tell finally changed his mind"This is similar to when Madison joins Tottenham in the summer of 2023. Madison also said, "I was agonizing over several clubs at the time, but after talking with Postecoglou, I made up my mind about Tottenham."

There is only one secret that Postecoglou persuaded Tel after Madison. This is because he gave value to the player by presenting a detailed plan. When the player joined Tottenham, he explained honestly and specifically what role he would give and how he would use it to achieve results. It showed a rational vision, not an emotional persuasion. This is the result of the fact that Postecoglou's strengths were also demonstrated.
