Mathys Tel

Mathys Tel announced himself to the world for Bayern Munich as Arsenal look on with envy amidst loan moves for young stars.

[Manchester City](https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/transfer-news/arsenal-manchester-city-transfer-trick-24845961) have been dominant over the past five years, the English top flight remains a place where even Pep Guardiola’s side have had to ease just one major young talent through in the form of Phil Foden. The Bavarians can use the exciting talent, knowing the overriding quality they have over the majority of their league opponents gives them that edge to blood more youth. However, whilst Bayern have had the chance to play the likes of Tel and others such as [Jamal Musiala](https://www.google.com/url?client=internal-element-cse&cx=015440420724022033189%3Affvnfhyzjuy&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.football.london%2Farsenal-fc%2Ftransfer-news%2Farsenal-transfers-gnabry-bayern-munich-23325733&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwj_u7CuvIz6AhXEX_EDHVqBBQIQFnoECAQQAg&usg=AOvVaw2FTphq9389CkF269uaETgP) and Alphonso Davies, English sides don’t get the same luxury unless the player is of an exceedingly high level. All the young stars of the early 2010s like Jack Wilshere, Aaron Ramsey and Alex Song went on loan to other English sides before being integrated into Arsene Wenger’s squad. Bayern have won the previous ten titles in Germany with two trebles in that time and three doubles. Tel at 17 is starting for the Bundesliga Champions after Julian Nagelsmann’s side invested a total €28.5m (~£25m) in the Stade Rennes forward.

A new superstar is emerging out of Europe. With the competitiveness of the Premier League, Wenger was simply not afforded that same luxury Bayern have had over the years, and that continues today for Arteta.
