Harry Kane provided one more assist to Spurs after helping Mathys Tel make his decision to join Spurs on transfer deadline day.
The young forward had been linked with moves to Arsenal and Man Utd before the end of the January window as he sought to leave Bayern Munich due to a lack of gametime.
It also seemed entirely possible the Frenchman would remain with the Bundesliga outfit after rejecting a move to Tottenham on Friday despite the two clubs agreeing on a £50 million deal.
In an incredible U-turn Tel jumped on a plane to London after being convinced by Ange Postecoglou to join the Premier League club before the deadline.
Harry Kane played key role in Mathys Tel transfer decision
The 19-year-old will now spend the rest of the season on loan with Spurs, who have the option to buy the player for £45 million in the summer.
Postecoglou was not the only one who played a part in Tel’s decision to complete the move as the former Rennes attacker spoke to Kane about what to expect at Spurs.
“He told me this is a big club with a lot of very good people,” he said, via Spurs official Instagram account.
“[He said] the pitch is very nice, the training centre is very good and if you go there you will enjoy it.
“Yes, everything was positive from [Harry] Kane.”
Tel is Spurs’ third signing of the January transfer window after the club signed goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky and defender Kevin Danso.
The youngster is sure to get more opportunities at Tottenham than he did at Bayern as the Premier League side are in the midst of a major injury crisis, with attackers Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson among those on the treatment table.
