Tottenham star Mathys Tel 'could be recalled early' by Bayern Munich

Tottenham forward Mathys Tel could be recalled early by Bayern Munich if Spurs don’t exercise their option to buy him outright before the end of the season. The Lilywhites snapped up the 19-year-old on loan at the start of February.
Tel agreed to join Spurs after reportedly rejecting the club’s advances days earlier and has featured seven times for Ange Postecoglou’s side. He has started four games in the Premier League and bagged the only goal of his Spurs career to date when he found the back of the net in Tottenham’s FA Cup fourth round defeat to Aston Villa in February.
According to German outlet Kicker, Bayern may take Tel back to the Allianz Arena early so he can play in the Club World Cup.
The tournament, which has been given a new format, is due to get underway on Sunday, June 15, with Bayern one of two clubs representing Germany alongside Borussia Dortmund.
Spurs can pay a fee of £45million to keep Tel at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on a permanent basis and will likely need to communicate their intentions before his parent club recall him.

Tel has struggled to endear himself to Tottenham supporters since arriving in England and was forced to delete a social media post this week after upsetting a host of fans.
Some Spurs supporters took exception after he posted a photo of himself to Instagram that showed him wearing a Fulham shirt with Willian’s name on the back of it.
And he will be under pressure to kick on before the end of the campaign, with Postecoglou yet to see the best of the player on the pitch.

After Tel had penned terms in north London, Postecoglou gave the youngster a glowing reference as he explained: “He'll be a Tottenham player. I think he’ll show everyone he’s going to be a Tottenham player in the next six months. I didn’t bring him here [just] for six months.
“With what we have in the next few months and more importantly what we are building beyond, I thought it would be a perfect fit for his next step.”
Tel will have his next opportunity to showcase his talents when Tottenham travel to Chelsea for a Premier League showdown next Thursday. The Lilywhites then host Southampton three days later before welcoming Eintracht Frankfurt in the opening leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie on Thursday, April 10.
Spurs are currently 14th in the Premier League table after enduring a difficult season, but will be eyeing up European glory in Postecoglou’s second season in charge.
