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

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

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

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