Manchester United’s hopes of signing Mathys Tel this summer have been dashed as the striker has signed a new long-term deal with Bayern Munich. The Frenchman, who was linked with an exit from the Allianz Arena due to lack of playing time under Thomas Tuchel, has committed his future to the German club until 2029.
Tel was considering his options in Bavaria, especially with uncertainty surrounding Tuchel’s position at the club. However, Bayern confirmed that Tuchel will step down at the end of the season, prompting them to secure Tel’s services with a new contract. The striker expressed his commitment to Bayern, stating that he aims to contribute to the team’s success by scoring goals and playing with passion for the club and its fans.
With Tel off the market, Manchester United will need to look elsewhere for a new striker. The club is set to release Anthony Martial and potentially lose Jadon Sancho in the upcoming transfer window. Their transfer plans could also be influenced by their performance in the current season, as qualifying for the Champions League is crucial to managing Financial Fair Play regulations.
As United prepare for a summer rebuild, fans will be eager to see who they target to strengthen their squad. Whether Erik ten Hag remains in charge or not, the Red Devils will be looking to make significant signings to bolster their attacking options. Stay tuned for more updates on Manchester United’s transfer activities as the season progresses.
