Mathys Tel, the 20-year-old forward, faces a setback after Tottenham left him off the Champions League roster for the 2025-2026 season. The French striker, who joined the club permanently for €35 million this summer, was expected to make a significant impact but will instead watch from the sidelines.
Having been developed at Rennes and previously played for Bayern Munich, Tel spent six months on loan at Spurs last season. Despite his permanent transfer, he won’t be part of the squad as Tottenham gears up to face teams like PSG and AS Monaco in the group stage.
Mathys Tel’s Champions League Dilemma
With only two substitute appearances in the Premier League this season, Tel is likely questioning his role and future under the coach’s plans. His limited playing time raises concerns about his progression and adaptation to the Premier League.
The arrival of Randal Kolo Muani from PSG is a key factor in Tel’s exclusion. The competition for spots in the squad is fierce, leaving Tel needing to prove himself when opportunities arise.
