He has worn the club’s shirt with immense pride and true honor since he was 12, Tel wrote. Cool head, warm heart as I write to you,” Tel added.

There should now be agreement between all parties, including the clubs in relation to the transfer fee. Rennes is expecting a record fee from the German champions, where coach Julian Nagelsmann has already commented on the qualities and prospects of the French youth international during the trip to the USA.
“He’s a very young, talented player. He can play in several positions, is very fast and strong,” said Nagelsmann after Bayern Munich’s 0-1 friendly against Manchester City on Sunday night. “He can become one of the best strikers.”

Tel will sign a five-year contract with FC Bayern and cost a transfer fee of almost 30 million euros, wrote “L’Équipe” on Saturday evening. The “Bild” also reported that the transfer was fixed and amounted to EUR 28.5 million including bonuses. Rennes has never conceded as much for a player as for Tel. Again, Bayern never put that much money into their hands for a 17-year-old, only once more for a teenager.

The talent, who will come of age next April, is considered one of the most promising youngsters in Europe. At FC Bayern, Tel could initially mature as a backup, although Nagelsmann has already manifested a guideline for Tel’s accuracy.
Bayern coach Nagelsmann trusts Tel “one day 40 goals per season”.
Nagelsmann trusts the Sturmjuwel a lot, especially in the long term. “He’s not a 1-1 replacement for Lewy, that’s normal at this age,” he said, referring to the departure of striker Robert Lewandowski. “We’re trying to find young, talented players that we can develop into world-class players.” He believes Tel “one day will score 40 goals a season” for the German record champions. “But if he scores ten goals this season, we’ll all be happy.” First of all, the Munich team plan to absorb the departure of world footballer Lewandowski with the established forces and an adapted style of play.
As soon as the ink under all contracts is dry, Bayern would have paid almost 150 million euros in transfer fees this summer. The most expensive new signing is defender Matthijs de Ligt, who came from Juventus for €67m. This is offset by income of more than 65 million euros. The Lewandowski sale to Barcelona alone accounted for 45 million euros. His successor could join the team as early as next week after completing the trip to the USA.
