Man United, Arsenal, Chelsea: Where could Tel end up on deadline day?
Mathys Tel's future remains up in the air heading into the final day of the January transfer window, and it will be fascinating to see where the Bayern Munich forward ends up.
There is no getting away from the fact that it has been a disappointing season for the 19-year-old, only contributing one assist in 14 appearances in all competitions, and he was left out of the squad against Holstein Kiel on Saturday.
Tel showed his quality last season, scoring 10 goals and registering six assists in 41 appearances, but the opportunities have just not been there this term, and he could be a high-profile departure on deadline day.
"We're talking a lot with him," Bayern Munich sporting director Christoph Freund said on Saturday. "A lot's been going on with the young lad in the past few days. He's only 19. We decided together with him yesterday that there's a lot on his mind, so it makes no sense for him to be involved today.

Greatest January transfers of all time: Who are the best winter signings in Premier League history?
The January transfer market has often proved difficult to do business in, but some of the Premier League's best ever signings have been completed in the winter window.
There have been cases where clubs have signed players for significant sums and come to regret their purchase, and these transfers have often materialised out of desperation to address glaring weaknesses.
The infamous swap deal between Manchester United and Arsenal involving Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alexis Sanchez in January 2018 was disastrous for all involved, with neither forward settling at their new teams.
However, there are countless examples of players arriving in the winter and going on to win major silverware, or becoming legends at their respective clubs.

What transfers could still happen on January 2025 transfer deadline day?
As the January 2025 transfer window draws to its conclusion, excitement is building across the football world in anticipation of the dramatic final hours of the winter deadline day.
Despite having at least a full month to strengthen their squads or move players on, many clubs often find themselves scrambling in the final hours to secure last-minute deals that could prove pivotal in defining the remainder of their seasons.
That seems to be the case once again this year, with several high-profile transfers still up in the air as the countdown ticks towards its final moments.
Here, Sports Mole takes a look at some of the biggest transfers that could still materialise on the January 2025 transfer deadline day.

Tel, Bailey, Nkunku, Garnacho: A look at Man United's potential deadline-day business
Manchester United's Premier League struggles continued on Sunday, with the Red Devils suffering a 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace, but the club are working to boost their squad before the end of the January transfer window.
The 20-time English champions are not going to challenge for a top-four spot in the Premier League table, but they are still active in the FA Cup and are through to the knockout round of the Europa League.
As a result, it could still be a successful campaign for the Red Devils, who have seriously underperformed this term.
Here, Sports Mole takes a look at who Ruben Amorim's side could sign and sell on transfer deadline day.

Angel delight for Ange? Three players Spurs could sign on deadline day
If a largely atrocious start to 2025 is anything to go by, Tottenham Hotspur's perennial Premier League status is under a small amount of threat as Ange Postecoglou's men compete in the lower echelons of the top-flight table.
In fewer than two years, Spurs fans have gone from revelling in the Australian's fast-paced, attack-minded philosophy to demanding Daniel Levy cede control of the club yet again, although the unpopular chairman should have cut a happier figure in Sunday's 2-0 win at Brentford.
A debilitating injury crisis has not helped Postecoglou's efforts in North London, and the Tottenham boss has also received little help from the powers upstairs, who have failed to convince either Mathys Tel or Fikayo Tomori to swap Bayern Munich or AC Milan for a bottom-half Premier League club.
However, the clouds briefly parted on Sunday morning when the Lilywhites announced the capture of Kevin Danso on loan from Lens with an obligation to buy, and further late arrivals are a distinct possibility.

Dusan or David on deadline day? Four strikers Arsenal could realistically target
Flash back to January 2022, where Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang left for Barcelona in acrimonious circumstances, Alexandre Lacazette was in decline, and Arsenal fans were crying out for a clinical option in the final third.
Those pleas fell on deaf ears, as Mikel Arteta's side failed to strike a deal for that ruthless finisher and ultimately paid the price for it, missing out on a top-four finish by a whisker as North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur nabbed the final Champions League spot.
Three years later, a similar tale is unfolding at the Emirates, where the Gunners are yet to welcome a single new face to the club on the men's side despite losing both Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus to serious injuries over the past couple of months.
An overworked Kai Havertz and under-experienced Nathan Butler-Oyedeji represent Arsenal's only two recognised centre-forward options at present, and should the Gunners not manage to address such shortages before 11pm on Monday, their already thin hopes of reining in Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table will be diminished further.

Real's injury crisis: Will Los Blancos reinforce defence after Rudiger's injury?
Real Madrid are reportedly determined not to change plans in the final day of the January transfer market despite Antonio Rudiger suffering an injury.
Los Blancos were beaten 1-0 by Espanyol on February 1 in La Liga, with Carlos Romero's 85th-minute goal enough to condemn Carlo Ancelotti's side to their first defeat in six games.
More concerning for the Italian manager than the defeat will be the injury suffered by Rudiger, who went down in the 15th minute with what Real say was "an injury to the biceps femoris in his right leg".
The defender now joins Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal on the sidelines, with both set to miss the rest of the season due to serious knee injuries.
