Manchester United<\/a> are considering hijacking Chelsea<\/a>’s deal for Mathys Tel after the French forward ‘decided to leave’ Bayern Munich<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tel, 19, is pushing for a move away from Bundesliga giants Bayern in the final week of the January transfer window.<\/p>\n

Bayern Munich signed the highly-rated forward from Rennes in 2022 in a deal worth \u00a320m.<\/p>\n

Tel featured regularly for Bayern during his first two seasons at the club but has fallen out of favour this term, starting just two league games.<\/p>\n

A lack of minutes has led Tel to grow frustrated at Bayern Munich and, according to Fabrizio Romano<\/a>, he now plans to leave before the winter window shuts next week.<\/p>\n

Tel’s decision will be welcome news for Chelsea, who have been linked with a move for the France U21 star throughout January<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chelsea held talks with Bayern at the start of the transfer window and reportedly reopened discussions with the German side earlier this week.<\/p>\n

The Blues have shown a willingness to bolster Enzo Maresca’s attacking options this month despite the wealth of attacking players already in the Stamford Bridge squad.<\/p>\n

At least one current Chelsea forward could be on the move, however, with Joao Felix the subject of interest from Aston Villa<\/a> and Christopher Nkunku heavily linked with a January switch, possibly even to Bayern.<\/p>\n

Tel, who has scored 16 goals in 82 appearances for Bayern Munich, could be seen as a ideal replacement for Felix or Nkunku but Chelsea face may yet face competition from Premier League rivals Manchester United.<\/p>\n

Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg<\/a> claims United are considering a late move for Tel as they brace themselves for potential exits at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

Marcus Rashford will leave if a suitable opportunity presents itself while the Red Devils are also considering a controversial sale of fellow academy graduate Alejandro Garnacho.<\/p>\n

Rashford has been linked with several domestic and foreign clubs<\/a> – including La Liga giants Barcelona – while Garnacho is said to be a target for Chelsea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

European Championship U17 winner Tel was strongly linked with a move to Manchester United this time last year but ended up staying in Munich.<\/p>\n

Discussing the speculation surrounding Tel earlier this month, Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund said: \u2018He is a very important player for us.<\/p>\n

‘He\u2019s a great talent and should play an important role for us. Our clear goal is for Mathys to make his breakthrough with us.’<\/p>\n
