• Trained at Stade Rennais, striker Mathys Tel played little with the professionals but exploded at Euro U17 with the French team.

  • At 17, the young player should join Bayern Munich for an amount of 20 million euros to which must be added significant bonuses.

  • The French striker is considered one of the greatest hopes in French football.

Crumbs.

Blocked by the prolific attack of Stade Rennais, Mathys Tel could only afford a few appearances last season.

The young prodigy only played 49 minutes in Ligue 1 in 2021-2022 with the Rouge et noir.

A statistic that did not prevent Bayern Munich from setting their sights (and breaking their PEL) on the nugget from Rennes.

At 17, the versatile striker will commit to the German champions for a record amount.

Some sources speak of an overall envelope of 30 million euros including a good part of bonuses.

A mind-blowing figure that tickles those negotiated for the departure of Ousmane Dembélé to Dortmund or Camavinga to Madrid.

Mathys Tel was only 12 when he joined Stade Rennais, before continuing to play for the Montrouge club, in the Paris region.

Landed at the training center in 2020 when the Covid-19 had stopped the championship, the then 15-year-old kid had quickly established himself as one of the greatest hopes of our championship.

He will not have had time to shine there.

Bursting the screen this summer in the jersey of the France team when he won the Euro under 17, the kid who passed through Clairefontaine stirred up envy.

In 2021, Tel had already distinguished himself by becoming the youngest Rennes player to play in Ligue 1 at just 16 years and 3 months, ahead of a certain Eduardo Camavinga.

The transfer of Mathys Tel is regrettable, but the opportunity for Bayern is great.


Today, this gives the Rennes team a new boost after Camavinga last summer.

Stade Rennais had no intention of selling him.

But after refusing two offers from Bayern, the Breton leaders had to face the facts.

Their crack couldn't stay.

"I have a vision that he will one day score 40 goals" per season, said Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann.

"But if he scores ten goals this season, we will be very happy," he said with a smile.

The formalization is expected very soon.

On his networks, the striker has already said goodbye to Brittany and promises that he will "always have great recognition" for Stade Rennais.

In six matches of National 3, the athletic attacker of 1.83 m had shown his technical ease and his power.

Next season, Mathys Tel should join Bayern's attacking rotation, which already has former Liverpool player Sadio Mané, veteran Thomas Müller, French wisp Kinglsey Coman and Leroy Sané, who is almost 10 years old, in his ranks. more than the young French nugget.

Tantalizing.

And both terribly risky for a striker who has hardly ever played at this level.
