Tottenham have reportedly reached a verbal agreement with Bayern Munich to sign highly-rated forward Mathys Tel in a deal worth €60 million, marking a major breakthrough in the transfer saga.
The young French striker has been heavily linked with a move away from the Bundesliga champions, attracting interest from Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United in recent weeks.
