FC Porto eye Mathys Tel, but move hinges on Borja Sainz exit | OneFootball

FC Porto have already identified a few targets for the transfer market, and Mathys Tel is on that list. The information was revealed by pundit Luís Pinto Coelho in the latest episode of the Lei do Mercado podcast on the Bola na Rede website.

Securing the signing will not be easy and depends, first and foremost, on Borja Sainz leaving. The Spaniard has the door open for a transfer and is being monitored by Athletic in this transfer window.

Even in that context, FC Porto still face three major obstacles: the fee demanded by Tottenham, who invested €45 million between the loan and the permanent transfer; the striker’s high wages; and interest from Bournemouth and Turkish clubs in the player.

The situation is complex, but the dragons can look at the Jakub Kiwior deal as a reference point. Mathys Tel is 21 years old, a French youth international, and this season he made 38 appearances for Tottenham, scoring four goals and providing two assists.
