Manchester United are attempting to re-route Mathys Tel to Old Trafford despite an agreement being struck between Bayern Munich and Tottenham, and Ruben Amorim's side are banking on two critical factors.

Tel’s signing would have bolstered a depleted attack that is without the injured Dominic Solanke, Timo Werner, Wilson Odobert and Brennan Johnson, but Ange Postecoglou’s side will be forced to look elsewhere or make do with the young forwards who excelled against Elfsborg in midweek.
