When Tottenham Hotspur signed Mathys Tel on loan from Bayern Munich during the winter transfer window, a purchase option set at around €60 million was included in the deal.
While Spurs are interested in keeping the French forward on a permanent basis, multiple reports suggest they are unwilling to trigger the clause at its current value. Instead, the Premier League side are looking to negotiate a lower fee.
According to Bild’s head of football, Christian Falk, Bayern are open to talks and could reduce their asking price to around €35 million.
Falk also notes that Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen, who maintains a strong relationship with Spurs, will lead the negotiations from the German side.
Spurs are also being linked with a move for Leroy Sané, whose contract with Bayern expires this summer.
Tel has scored three goals and provided one assist for Tottenham in 20 matches for the club.
