The BBC reported on the 4th (Korea time) 'Tottenham has agreed to a contract with Bayern Munich's forward Tel'
Tel, the under-21 French national striker, reportedly rejected Tottenham's offer earlier this month, but his agent Gadiri Kamara took a photo of him on a private jet with Tel on the 3rd, making his trip to Tottenham visible.

European football expert Julien Lawrence said that "Postecoglou had a long conversation with Matistel on the 3rd and strongly persuaded him to come to Tottenham. "Tottenham has done a great job in recruiting one of the most coveted young players in Europe."
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy also visited Munich last week to recruit Tel, but it fell apart. At the time, Tel reportedly wanted to move to Manchester United or another English big club. Arsenal also showed interest in Tel until just before the transfer deadline, and Chelsea considered a swap deal linked to Christopher Nkunku early in the transfer window. However, no move has taken place since then, and a few minutes after agent Gadiri Kamara posted a photo of him on a private jet with Tel, news poured in that Tel was joining Tottenham.
When his contract with Tel completes his final signing, Tottenham will record their second signing in two days after signing Austrian defender Kevin Danso from Ligue 1 Lance on loan. Meanwhile, Tottenham, seeking to strengthen its defense amid line injuries of its main players, failed to recruit Crystal Palace center back Mark Gehi.
