Bayern agreed to sell Tel to Tottenham for £50million on Friday, only for the teenager to turn them down.
According to transfer expert , Arsenal and Man Utd both remain in the race for Tel and have each made contact with the player's team regarding a move.
It's said that the Frenchman "idolised" Thierry Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo as a kid.

Arsenal are keen on forward reinforcements, especially given injuries suffered by Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus.

Arsenal fans will already adore their potential new signing after he turned down rivals Spurs.
